West Palm Beach artist, Ben Leone, incorporates materials often overlooked in the everyday, gravitating towards raw materials found on construction sites and in urban environments. Approaching his artwork from an architectural perspective has led him to integrate traditional techniques with modern technologies to create an ongoing conversation about our relationship with the world. Through this exploration of architecture and material, Ben’s work defines our connection with nature and how we choose to integrate our mark making into the planet. This brings up topics of globalization, population growth, and climate change.
