His sculptures have toured with various shows to dozens of museums both in the United States and abroad. Numerous parks, gardens, universities, and office buildings display Matia's outdoor sculptures including the United States President's Guest House, Blair House. In 1998, he was commissioned to produce the Merrill Lynch Bull for the exteriors of their regional offices.
