About the Item
Shipping time depends on method of shipping.
Benjamin Heller invites us to enter a poetic space of echo and convergence. As a photographer, sculptor, and performer, movement is key in this body of work. It is a window to the interior landscapes he seeks to find reflected in the world, to contain a sense of this intimate vastness. All of the images can be viewed as variations on a self-portrait.
The places of intimacy and sense of vastness can convey a sense of transport that enhances the viewer’s visual experience. The "echoes" we find reside in multiplicities of human and physical forms, rolling natural curves, and animals in flight; all intended to provide a resonance with the contours of earth, water, and wind.
Traces of poetry, sculpture, the lines of the body, lived experience are also evoked in Heller’s photographs, in movement and action. He also finds inspiration in photographer Duane Michal’s’ framing of expressive narratives, and in Sally Mann’s felt sense of powerful physical presence. Photographer Miranda Penn Turin, in reviewing the exhibition, said, “I can almost hear a soundtrack, and it's the sound of wind”.
The invitational image is entitled “Fall,” a graceful figure, suspended in a glowing arc, light streaming upwards, eyes closed in rapture. This light sits in contrast to the infinite shadow of the black background, conjuring a certain atmosphere. Heller believes that it is shadows that allow the viewer to reside in the experience – this image does just that. These imagined environments speak to our converging lives and the echoed moments we experience, embodying for each viewer, just what Benjamin Heller connects with while photographing.
Benjamin Heller has exhibited his photography, video, and sculptural performance work at the Baryshnikov Arts Center, Brooklyn Museum, Wave Hill, New York Live Arts, ICP International Center of Photography, Robin Rice Gallery, Cheryl Hazan Gallery, Fresh Window, Eyebeam, New York Foundations for the Arts, and Honey Space Gallery in New York. In 2013, he was selected for the Bronx Museum AIM residency program and Biennial Exhibition. This is his first solo show.
