A showing of the art of Dustin Ortiz, Jonathan Mattson, and Jared Mattson titled Top Ramen Nachos will open this Friday, September 30, 2011, at UNIV in Encinitas, California.
Born and raised in Encinitas, surrounded by the creative melting pot of the surf and skateboard communities, Dustin and the Mattson’s have been using the tools at their disposal to create for the better part of their lives. They have chosen the name, “Top Ramen Nachos” for their first show together as a symbol of the unique and satisfying combinations that can manifest when one is left their own devices in a world where the circumstances are not ideal.

If there were a Boy Scouts for latchkey kids, one of the first merit badges earned would be that of surviving the wilderness that is the pantry of a lower middle class family. Once you can put a meal together for yourself, the process of being home alone for a good part of the week seems less a handicap and more a great opportunity to explore the limits of your prepubescent ingenuity.
Dustin Ortiz, Jonathan and Jared Mattson had such an upbringing. Born and raised in Encinitas, surrounded by the creative melting pot of the surf and skateboard communities, Dustin and the Mattson’s have been using the tools at their disposal to create for the better part of their lives. They have chosen the name, “Top Ramen Nachos” for their first show together as a symbol of the unique and satisfying combinations that can manifest when one is left their own devices in a world where the circumstances are not ideal.
