About Benjamin
I was born on 1 January 1967 in the Free State, South Africa. I matriculated from Welkom High School in 1984. I studied fine arts from 1985 to 1987 at the Vaal University of Technology and Tshwane University of Technology.
I'm a full-time freelance fine artist, scenic artist, illustrator and 2D digital animator. I do commissions and collaboration in oil and acrylic painting, scenic painting, illustration, and 2D digital animation.
In my figurative paintings I try to capture the moment to the best of my ability, whether it be a thought, emotion or atmospheric feeling. These scenes of everyday life are taken from photographs I have captured in my surroundings. This moment I leave to the viewer to interpret. As each interpretation might be different, I believe each to be true.
Since 2003 I have exhibited my work in South Africa, and in the same year received my first international exposure with the help of SouthAfricanArtists.com online gallery. I exhibited work in Munich and Hof, in Germany (2005 - 2006). Since then I gained support from several buyers in the UAE, Europe, America and South Africa.
I furthered my scenic experience while working in Dubai on the IBN Battuta shopping mall (2004 and 2006), a sculpture project for the Dubai Municipality horse museum (2007) and mural work at the Dubai IMG Worlds of Adventure indoor theme park (2016). In Johannesburg I worked on a scenic project for Monte Casino's East-End Teatro (2007) and created backdrops for television adverts at Golden Island Studios (2013).
Since 2010, as a self taught animator, I received contract work to create a short film for a SABC documentary and animation collaboration projects for corporation info-graphic material. In 2013 I received a first place award for a medical animation competition for the Iheed institute.
I continue to create animated shorts, as well as illustrated and animated poems. My search for new ideas and experimentation with new techniques, styles and media is ongoing.
Awards and Competitions: 2012 Vuleka competition, SA Art Times Merit Award. Iheed Animation 1st place Award, Oct. 2013.
