The Tortoisphere

‘The Tortoisphere’shows fragments that float between our planet’s biospheres. Shapes and imagery have been sourced from old Durrell brochures and site maps, and the Japanese animation ‘Future Boy Conan’. It has been inspired by the next generations, and the hands that support and connect us all. It also features hand and footprints from artist Ben’s 20-month-old daughter. As a practicing visual artist for over 10 years, Ben’s work has become a tool for social change and is mainly in the public realm. Focusing on positive themes to discern a shared passion for the natural world.
