About Benjamin Parker
Saatchi Art Profile: https://www.saatchiart.com/byclops
I am an artist specializing in painting, etching and drawing. My works reflect on the struggle between the need to distance ourselves from our animalistic, primitive nature (or dominate it), and the inherent desire for contact with it.
