Renowned artist Jason Benjamin describes his art as experiential. Indeed, stripped back then intensified, his atmospheric landscapes are less about preciseness and more a vehicle for emotional contemplation. Like taking a walk to turn over an idea, his scenes bear an intimate but private gravitas.

In 'Let's Go Back to the Start' sky, burning like an ember, rolls over the landscape. The day is caramelising into night, the grass oddly still and you, the lone occupant of this vista, wait for clarity. A feat of composition, depth and intrigue, this work is quietly profound. 

Benjamin is represented in numerous public collections, including at the National Gallery of Victoria and the National Gallery of Australia, as well as notable regional and corporate collections. He is multi-time finalist in the Wynne, Archibald and Doug Moran prizes and in 2005, won the Archibald's Packing Room Prize. 

'Let's Go Back to the Start' is an Artist Proof from an edition that numbered forty. For collectors of Jason Benjamin, prints, landscape and contemporary art, this work is a thrilling find.
