How to find matrix representations of a boolean algebra?

Given a boolean algebra with a finite number of elements {a, b, c, ...}, and the usual operations: $\cup, \cap, \neg$.

How to find matrix representations of the elements such that:

  1. boolean $\cup$ corresponds to matrix addition and
  2. boolean $\cap$ corresponds to matrix multiplication?

Is it possible? If yes, is there a systematic way to find such matrices?
