Matilda Finn is a director other directors talk about. Her distinctive visual style and surreal aesthetic have made her one of the most sought-after artists of her generation. Her work feels otherworldly—oddly familiar yet unlike anything else—prompting the inevitable question: “Which planet are you from?” Her answer: “I’m not sure, to be honest.” That’s Matilda: real, imaginative, and direct.
She has collaborated with artists such as The Weeknd, Jay Rock, Danny Brown, Bicep, Brodinski, Bob Moses, Bipolar Sunshine, and Apparat, earning numerous awards and recognitions. She was nominated for Best Director at the UK Music Video Awards in 2019, following consecutive wins for Best New Director in 2017 and 2018. Other accolades include Gold at Kinsale Sharks 2019, Shots New Director of the Year 2019, and Gold at Ciclope 2020. Her commercials have also won multiple awards, including Arrows and Clios, and she was named one of the top ten directors of the year by Campaign Magazine in 2022.
A multidisciplinary artist—director, photographer, and creative director—Matilda combines a unique voice with pragmatic clarity of vision. And, as everyone who meets her will tell you, she’s simply fantastic to talk to.
