Dawn Benson
Artist Information
     
     
 

Dawn was born in Canada and moved to England as a small child. She trained as a Graphic Designer for seventeen years before returning to her passion - sculpture and painting.

She produces stylised, figurative sculptures in bronze and bronze resin. Initially working in clay, plaster or wax the pieces have a truly sensitive quality. Most of the work is based on families and relationships.

More recently, she has begun exploring the deep bond that can develop between children and horses. Her work captures an element of tension, humour and sensitivity, making one realise there is often more than meets the eye.
