This episode features an interview with Choreophotolist Benji Reid
Benji Reid considers himself a Choreo-Photolist; a term he coined to encapsulate his unique practice where theatricality, choreography and photography meet in the image. His breathtaking photographs, composed primarily of self-portraits in incredible, anti-gravitational poses with a medley of props, draws the audience into a different dimension. In the hyper-realities he presents the subject is liberated by acts of the artist’s imagination. Whether exploring life as an outsider; issues surrounding mental health or complexities of fatherhood, Reid makes the audience part of the discussion.
Note: For more on Benji Reid check out our exclusive feature in Trebuchet Issue 8: Surrealism. Available now.
We also have Trebuchet print room updates, Chat with Creative Coach Megan Grace-Hughes, and Art Writer Mille Walton.
