ABOUT

Ben Sheppee (b.1978, Bristol, UK) is a graphic fine artist based in London. His work is an inquiry into the role of communication, where he deconstructs the elements of language, and explores the aesthetics that live there. His compositions embody an internal battle with articulation, where visual works attempt to overcome the limitations of written forms which can become misconstrued, misinterpreted and often fail to convey its true meaning.

 

His work has appeared at art institutions, including Tate Britain, Serpentine and The National Portrait Gallery. Sheppee is an Art Director for music industry icons such as Prodigy, Dua Lipa, Rihanna and JayZ, developing stage designs and visual content for large shows. His key passion however remains the feedback and dialogue with the viewer that is realized through exhibiting his work as a graphic fine artist in creative spaces.
