Benjamin Sack — Suburbs of Utopia (pen, ink, on woven paper, 2012)

[gottaseesomeart]

Benjamin Sack - Influenced by historical cartography, symphonic orchestration, architectural drawing and extensive travel, my work engages architecture as a vehicle for expressing uncommon perspectives and vantages of tremendous detail; cultivating a geometric idealism reaching continually into the realm of the infinite. My process, seeking a harmony between reason and intuition, is an evolution of understanding; turning inwards to explore new worlds of form and incongruous expressions of time.

Infinite Architectural Metropolises Balance Order and Chaos in Benjamin Sack’s Drawings

In Benjamin Sack’s imagined environments, it’s not uncommon to find angular mazes resembling dystopian structures, buildings packed so closely together it’s difficult to distinguish one from the next, and labyrinthine walkways that spiral like fractals. Working in pen and ink, the artist (previously) draws intricate black-and-white metropolises that waver between organization and chaos: He plays with geometry, angles, and dimension to render perplexing maps teeming with both traditional architecture and surreal additions, like treble clefs, astral shapes, and dizzying line- and dot-work.
