Jason Benjamin’s exquisitely rendered oil paintings, with their careful distillation of light and space, invite contemplation and emotional engagement. While his memory and experience of particular locations may ignite each new body of work, Benjamin’s paintings are rarely literal or precise.

As you love … I love is a culmination of years of personal experiences, with the artist articulating, “I have felt after years of searching, a fleeting but welcome sense of grace while at work on this show. Each painting a vessel for expressing things we identify as essential to our person, our connection to humanity; longing, loss, joy, elation and so on.”
