About Benjamin Buckley

Benjamin Buckley is a London Based artist, whose works are inspired by the black line of traditional Chinese and Japanese woodblocks prints. Selected as one of the top ten emerging artists in the UK in 2013 by the Affordable Art Fair founder and Art Critic, Will Ramsay, and voted as one of the up-and-coming artists to invest in. Benjamin has gone on to show his works in multiple group and solo shows across the UK and Europe. With commissions in the UK, US, China and Europe, he is currently working on two high-profile commissions in the US and China to be released later this year. Benjamin's works reveals a world in constant overflow of architectural marvels, Americana, Orientalism, commercialism, gentrification and spirituality. He explores a landscape through Western imagery and the artistic heritage of Asia.
