Ben Brandt: Multimedia Installations

"Working as a carpenter with an interest in historic preservation, I’m drawn to the forms and proportions of Greek and Roman architecture as well as their derivatives and translations up through the turn of the last century. In general, I’m inspired by the patterns, structures and textures of the built environment."
