About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. In Hear The Wind, Andrew Bennett crafts a scene that is both serene and enigmatic, playing with elements of perception and symbolism. Two wooden chairs sit side by side in a sunlit room, positioned in front of twin windows that open onto a vast seascape. The tranquil blues of the sky and ocean spill into the room, creating a seamless dialogue between the interior and exterior. The stillness of the composition contrasts with the implied movement of the wind, suggested by the painting’s objects and its evocative title. One chair holds a book titled Hear The Wind, upon which rests a framed image of a human ear—an intriguing metaphor for the act of listening and perception. The other chair supports a finely detailed model sailboat, its sails taut as if catching an unseen breeze. These elements create a sense of quiet anticipation, as if the painting itself is tuned to the subtle whispers of the wind. The juxtaposition of reading, hearing, and sailing suggests an exploration of sensory experience, where knowledge, sound, and motion are interconnected. Bennett’s masterful use of light and perspective enhances the painting’s depth, drawing the viewer into its contemplative atmosphere. The warm wooden tones of the chairs contrast beautifully with the crisp blues of the ocean and sky, while the subtle shadows on the floor add a touch of realism. The work exudes a poetic stillness, encouraging reflection on the unseen forces that shape our experiences. This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online.
