matrix (form)
I think they're talking about three-dimensional art in which a piece or pieces are cut out of a geometric shape and rearranged, as in the first picture here:

Here's an even simpler example from the same artist:

The "forma matrice" is the original shape - I would be inclined to leave out "form", as it doesn't add much, but it's up to you.
I think both of these definitions fit the context:
Matrix
1: something within or from which something else originates, develops, or takes form
an atmosphere of understanding and friendliness that is the matrix of peace
2a: a mold from which a relief (see RELIEF entry 1 sense 6) surface (such as a piece of type) is made
