Stephen RG Bennett is a visual artist who explores relationships between art, knowledge and power. He has exhibited at the Tate Modern, Royal Geographical Society and Terre Verte Gallery. He regularly situates his practice in government institutions. He is the founder and lead artist of MANIFEST, a programme which supports artists to work in policymaking.
Stephen will be sharing works from “The Ultimate Kindness is Water” series. Aerial imagery of the United States is combined with experimental photography processes to explore the sense of potentiality and change that lies beneath the asphalt and infrastructure of our lives. He will also share his laser engraver-and-watercolour landscapes, a few works-in-progress and studio ephemera of his endeavours to connect art and policymaking.
