About me
Greetings! I'm Ben, an artist originally from San Diego, California, currently based in this sunny city, capturing the essence of life through dreamy landscapes, the mesmerizing world of macro photography, and detailed pencil/charcoal drawings. In my late teens, a need for healing and self-discovery led me to embark on camping trips and travels, immersing myself in diverse landscapes. Photography became my therapeutic outlet, grounding me in the present moment. A lifelong dedication to capturing moments evolved, showcasing the beauty found in nature. Upon moving to Germany at the age of 21, I cultivated a 1000-square-meter forest garden, nurturing a love for organic gardening and an obsession with macro photography. The growth cycles of plants, the intricate dance of insects, and the documentation of their life cycles became a form of meditation. Through the lens of a camera, I find solace and connection, immersing myself in the captivating world of the microcosm.
