Surface: Fragmented Portraits by Ben Howe

Published Oct 14, 2016

“Surface” is a series of eerie paintings by Australian artist Ben Howe.

“Ben Howe’s haunting images of broken, sliced and shredded faces may resemble digitally altered photographs, yet they are actually oil paintings rendered on canvas and board. Part of his ongoing series titled Surface Variations, the paintings are not only visually startling, but also deeply reflective on the nature of human consciousness — challenging our perception of the human form and exploring concepts of fractured memory and identity.”
