ABOUT

✕

Ben Liney is an Australian artist working on the lands of the Bunurong. Seeking inspiration from explorations across the country, he takes a rigorous approach to bring new visions of place, depicting minimal scenes in an intimate realistic form.

Working in oil painting, Ben explores the unwounded beauty of the landscape and how it can carry out the hidden work of life within us.

With a focus on rock forms set against an open background, distinct details of the natural world are revealed in order to invite a conversation of the landscape into our everyday.

Ben is represented in Sydney by Traffic Jam Galleries.
