Will Benedict — Municipal Waste
Will Benedict

Municipal Waste

2013

Will Benedict's *Municipal Waste* combines gouache applied to foamcore and canvas with an archival inkjet print, bringing together painterly and photographic processes within a single composition. The work is housed in a custom Plexiglas frame designed by the artist, which functions as an integral part of the piece rather than a mere presentational device. Benedict's layering of materials and surfaces reflects his ongoing interest in the aesthetics of commercial and institutional imagery, implicating systems of display and disposability.
