Meet an Artist Monday: Benjamin Lowder (LA Weekly)

“Benjamin Lowder is known for a unique sculptural and wall-works practice metamorphosing repurposed salvaged materials like vintage signs and weathered barn-wood into complex patterns expressing celestial sacred geometry and deconstructing the visual mechanics of language. The objects are tactile, emotionally warm and rich with nostalgia, even as they actively rearrange the energy patterns of the spaces they occupy. A new show of way-finding totems opens this weekend at Open Mind Art Space in Santa Monica.”
