LIAM BENSON: NEW VIDEO WORKS

As part of his new body of work and current exhibition, Motherland, Liam Benson presents three new video works...

Motherland is performance artist Liam Benson’s social and political commentary on identity and nationhood and the alliances of monarchy, motherhood and masculinity.

 Liam Benson uses queer identity to gently subvert social perceptions of gender, race, culture, sexuality and national identity. He mines the visual language and communication formats of advertising and popular media to document his performances as both still photographs and video for a form of contemporary myth making.

Visit the gallery during May to see the full exhibition.
