Ben Evely is a visual artist from Banff, Alberta, on Treaty 7 Territory. He primarily works with painting, collage and drawing. He also works collaboratively on projects in public spaces. Ben studied Visuals Arts at Emily Carr University, graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a Minor in Social Practice and Community Engagement in 2019.
Ben’s process is project specific, but he often begins with collage, and digital compositions prior to physical work. Observing the transformations and distortions while merging analog and digital mediums. A common thread is the interplay of organic and synthetic, and human experiences within nature. Some works unfold spontaneously in a non linear process. Dynamic forms growing, pushing and pulling. Emphasising changing environments, with attention to how elements are interconnected.
