Ben Sledsens

b. 1991, Antwerp, Belgium. Ben Sledsens is an Antwerp-based artist that transforms daily life, literary characters, animal portraits and elements of (art)history into his own private utopia. His works often hide subtle links to each other and compositions recur also between paintings and drawings, which only amplifies the works’ underlying ambiguous significance while he creates a bigger fictitious world together.
