Pilot Yellow 3, 2008 Rik Bennett
Rik Bennett is an artist in the punk DIY style and has been working with stencils throughout his practice. Bennett works site-specifically frequently creating artworks in unexpected locations, such as remote beaches and neglected urban areas. A key element of his work is that it is left for others to discover by chance, a gesture that is fundamental to Bennett’s way of working, one that emulates his interests in the world and creates a journey of discovery.
Bennett is also a surfer, skateboarder, musician, outdoorsman, beachcomber and occasional safari guide. His artworks reflect these aspects of his life and experiences, creating a poetic vehicle for him to convey a sense of joy and sometimes confusion into the world.
