Liam Benson<br />
ARTIST STATEMENT<br />
Liam Benson, a multi-disciplinary artist whose practice<br />
incorporates performance, photography, video and<br />
textiles. Benson’s work explores identity and culture as a<br />
living dualistic process which is both informed by and<br />
challenges historical, political, and social consciousness<br />
and the representation of this exchange through<br />
iconography. Liam’s practice is informed by working<br />
collaboratively with diverse communities through an<br />
ongoing conversation about how culture, sub-culture and<br />
identity interrelate and evolve. His works are held in<br />
significant public and private collections including The<br />
MCA Australia, the Art Gallery of South Australia, Artbank<br />
and Western Sydney University.<br />
