Born in 1988 in Tel Aviv, Aviv Benn is a London-based expressionistic painter. Her paintings are a visual universe starring symbolic archetypes and fantastical forms that pop up, reappear, and combine to formulate the dreamlike world they inhabit.
Aviv has an MFA in Painting and Drawing from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (2018) and a BFA from Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem (2013). By repeating the same imagery over numerous canvases, she informs a narrative that stretches far beyond the boundaries of a singular painting. Weaving new relationships together, she constructs a vivid, interconnecting myth throughout her works.
