Benjamin Bird
My practice explores relationships between place and man made structures found in such spaces. Multiple approaches enable me to probe shifting sites of building construction, finding potential gaps in such areas of flux, forming structures we inhabit. This fascination extends to how architecture’s portrayal in various stages of completion is used for commodity and expectation. Such acts produce frictions and offer alternative possibilities of expressing these spaces and subverting hermoginous depictions. The print and material alteration plays a central role in my work, creating a physical relationship with image as object. By transforming an image's original intention and space, from shimmering surface to tactile form, it shares the same space as the viewer, allowing interrogation and presence in the now.
