About this artwork
Historically many cultures considered the solar eclipse to be a bad omen and were “seen as cosmic interruptions.” (Bromwich, J., 2017) In the 20th century it marks the beginning of the post WWI era, a raging pandemic that killed 50,000,000 people, and a new understanding of the nature of physics. On 6/21/2020 a solar eclipse marked another global pandemic and record temperatures recorded in the Arctic Circle. Temperatures reached 100 degrees in Siberia.…
As you can see the solar eclipse can act as a marker or a signpost for our relationship with the world and universe. It can be read as a powerful symbol of contemporary thought, emotion and activity.

« Making art begins with an idea or a connection. It's important to always be looking for something new or you'll find yourself walking in circles. »
Benjamin Murphy is an artist based in the United States whose works have been exhibited nationally, as well as in Portugal and France. He finds inspiration in the intersections between the complicated relationship that science and innovation have with our understanding of the world. Murphy takes a modernist approach to creation and favors painting with oils on paper or canvas.
