Ben Cobb's sleek, abstracted sculptural vessels are inspired by the vulnerable, internal organs of the human body. His newest work is focused on a study of human muscular structure.
Cobb is a skillful technician, and firmly rooted in tradition – but with a decidedly modern sensibility. By incorporating optical, biological and architectural references into his work, the artist explores the dichotomy of inside/outside, form/function, in a highly personal and contemporary manner.
