About the Item
Ben Hamburger says of his work…
I use painting to explore my environment, experiences, and inner worlds. Grounded in observational painting, my work spans a range of subject matter and degrees of abstraction, often reflecting the complex relationship between people and nature. Painting provokes me to see the world with greater sensitivity, and my work is a response to the elements that intrigue me. Shapes, light, and color interactions often initiate the work, but they don’t necessarily dictate the outcome. In my effort to materialize a fleeting moment or idea, I experiment with process and materials, allowing something new to emerge.
Teaching and socially engaged projects are integral to my multifaceted role as an artist. These collaborative experiences create a generative exchange in which my studio practice informs my teaching, and teaching, in turn, invigorates my painting.
