First thing that I noticed was the overall color schemes of each cell. The middle and right cells are very close to each other in color. Two options to consider. I would either A. move the left cell to the middle to balance out the schemes but by doing so you'll have to rework the dark circle in the middle cell or B. you could make the cell on the right a dark cell or even a third color scheme. This could raise some issues for the left and right cells as they are very similar and would be even more so if you changed the right cell to match the left one in terms of color.

In terms of the left and right cells being similar you might want to consider a little more variation for one of them besides just a color change. This could of course be irrelevant if each one of these pages is presented individually for the actual project "M A T E".

Another minor issue, more personal preference than anything, but you could try giving your pieces a little more breathing room in between the panels. It would help balance and unify it with the thick white borders. It works either way though.

Another thing I noticed was your URL address on the bottom of the page. I would try kerning the type to match the type in the black cells, the ones that say "creative art". It could go either way in terms of how it looks but just something to consider. If you do kern the type you might also have to size the type back down which could ruin the overall effect. Balance is key.

Overall the design is clean, creative and well done. You implemented a lot of visual elements that play to your advantage very well. Between the abstract design, awesome color schemes and great type, this is definitely a piece worthy of your gallery.

Well I am not sure what the MATE project is but it's a beautiful abstract design. I love the type treatment on the MATE logo.
