    “Every child is an artist, the problem is staying an artist when you grow up”
    -Pablo Picasso

    I was drawing shortly after I could walk. I was creating worlds and characters in my mind and on paper before I could write my own name. I’ve spent the majority of my life painting, drawing, filming, photographing, writing and creating to make sense of this wonderful world.

    Now I make short films mostly.

Amy Bennett – Group Isolation
January 6, 2009 In Uncategorized

Two years ago, Amy Bennett contsructed a 1:87 scale model neighborhood, a fictitious cluster of eleven houses depicted through model railroading miniatures, styrofoam, cardboard, and plastic, complete with string telephone wires and working lights. The process of designing and assembling the setting over several months triggered her imagination to develop characters to populate the place along with a loose timeline of events that would culminate in the neighborhood’s history. The paintings are glimpses of a scene or fragments of a narrative. Some of the images are conceived of sequentially.

The paintings portray both the magical and suffocating potential of snow, the wonder at its stark beauty and the hopelessness that spring might never come.

The first group of the neighborhood series was exhibited in January 2007 at Richard Heller Gallery in LA. The final pieces, consisting primarily of snow scenes, were shown in September, 2007 at Galleri Magnus Karlsson in Stockholm.
