About Peter T. Bennett
Peter T. Bennett was born in Syracuse, New York and has worked in multiple disciplines including photography, video, painting, drawing, and textile collage. His current body of work, “The Artist,” graphite on paper, is a merging of numerous historical narratives that draw on post-war Atomic Age toys, European art history, 20th century American industrialization, and the armor of feudal Japan. These drawings are an imaginary dialogue with visual artists from history, who in turn influence the content and intent of the work. Peter now lives in Maine.
