River Town Space Time
Benjamin Bradshaw
January 3 - February 15, 2025
Opening Reception January 3, 5-8pm
Benjamin Bradshaw’s paintings traverse the psychic topography of an endless internal landscape, weaving together the vibrant threads of graffiti, magical realism, and visionary art. Drawing inspiration from the raw energy and spontaneity of graffiti, as well as the delicate brushwork of ancient Chinese landscape painting, Bradshaw employs a methodology of dynamic harmonies. This approach evokes the elemental forces of water, the intricate structure of plant growth, and the stratified histories of geological deep time.
