FREDERICK, Md. (AP) — Talk to Christian Benefiel for any length of time, and it becomes apparent that he’s an abstract thinker who can get lost in contemplation.
His ideas undoubtedly get transferred to his art work.
His sculptures, both permanent and semi-permanent, indoor and outdoor, made from wood and bronze cast iron, have this same quality of mind, provoking deep thought and speculation about the world around us.
His installation “Trying to make Aurica without breaking Pangea,” for example, on exhibit at the Frederick Arts Council’s Pop-Up Gallery through May 1, makes manifest his ideas about the systems and structures in which we live, as well as the impermanent nature of all things.
