Benjamin Shine is a multidisciplinary artist most known for his pioneering work in tulle, which centres on ideas of energy, impermanence and the relationship between the spiritual and the superficial.
Each portrait is formed from the folds of the tulle fabric alone – there are no drawn lines or paint in these, or any of the works. The intricate pressing and pleating of the translucent material generates a variety of tones and textures while the specific flow of the fabric provides directional pleats to further describe the form of the face
