Mary Mattingly is one of the most popular and richest Visual Artist who was born on September 8, 1979 in Rockville, Maryland, United States. Mary Mattingly (born September 8 September, 1979) is a famous American visual artist who lives with her family within New York City. Her birthplace was in Rockville, Connecticut in 1978. She’s been studying at the Parsons School of Design in New York, and received her Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) from the Pacific Northwest College of Art in Portland, Oregon in 2002. She was awarded the Yale University School of Art Fellowship and was a resident of the Eyebeam Art and Technology Center between 2011 and 2012.

Mattingly was chosen as a finalist shortlist for the first Prix Pictet global environmental photography competition (2008). She was granted artist-residency grants at New York University; Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, New York City; Braziers International, Oxfordshire, England; and Yale Summer School of Music and Art, Norfolk, CT. Mattingly was an Eyebeam Fellow from 2011 to 2012.

Mattingly explores the themes of home, travel, cartography, and humans’ relationships with each other, with the environment, with machines, and with corporate and political entities. She has been recognized for creating photographs and sculptures depicting and representing futuristic and obscure landscapes, for making wearable sculpture, “wearable homes,” and for her ecological installations, including the Waterpod (2009).

In 2012 she was a part of the smARTpower project, “Wearable/Portable Architecture project”, and worked with Green Papaya Art Space in Manila, the Philippines, initiated by the US Department of State and the Bronx Museum. The project discussed the possibilities of having a locale create portable architecture based on the conditions of its environmental, urban and cultural conditions. It was organized to find ways in providing new arguments and sustaining an artistic impetus to our immediate environment. It addresses the timely issues of flooding and mobility, engaging participants to come up with designs that would respond to current environmental disasters and if portable architecture is applicable in our urban landscape.

Then, in December of 2006 she launched an opera with multimedia at the White Box in New York called Fore Cast. Fore Cast was positioned as an environmental disaster and included an art installation accompanied by songs and performances of World War IV which was predicted by Albert Einstein:

She has been featured in one-person shows at the Robert Mann Gallery, New York; White Box, New York; Galerie Adler, Frankfurt, Germany, The New School, New York, Bemis Center for Contemporary Art, Omaha, Nebraska and various other exhibition venues. In September of 2006 the piece of art by the artist entitled “The New Mobility of Home” was chosen as the cover art of the International Centre of Photography’s Triennial called “Ecotopia.”

Mattingly claims she was inspired to develop Waterpod in 2006, because at the time she was concerned that NYC did not do enough to draw attention to the rising levels of water. Throughout the duration of the project, a rotating group of artists joined the crew of Waterpod. Many of participants were interviewed about the project, and they reported that the life on the vessel led to a shift of the focus of everything that is required for keeping a delicate artificial ecosystem functioning.

From June through September 2009, Mattingly led a NY-based multinational team of artists, designers, builders, civic activists, scientists, environmentalists, and marine engineers to launch the Waterpod, a free, participatory New York Citywide event docking in all 5 boroughs and at Governors Island. Designed as a new habitat for the global warming epoch, the Waterpod represented a sustainable, sculptural art and technology habitat, with as many as four artists living on and off it, generating food, water, and power in a contained and self-sufficient environment.
