Coming posts + what's up in my world
Added 2018-05-04 10:54:13 +0000 UTCIt's been nearly 2 weeks since my prev post so I wanted to send a quick msg to apologise; I arrived back to London on the 16th of April and been catching up with the world since. Been doing a LOT of stuff in the background to figure out a bunch of stuff about my business, career, personal goals...where I'm going w everything...
It's an exciting time I feel. A lot of changes will occur in the near future.
I'm working on an entirely new online shop where you'll be able to purchase affordable prints of my work + endless other goodies. I'm also planning to start my own podcast very soon as well as a very exciting exhibition in London this coming September with Berlin tattoo artist Chaim Machlev (@dotstolines).
As always, I'm preparing some very exciting new unpublished work to share with you first here. The pic on the top is from a set I've done w circus artist / performer Katrina Lilwall.
The following image is from an interesting shoot I've done with dancers Emma Farnell-Watson and Alexander Stavropoulos:
And finally, a preview to a new project I'm working on, I don't really have a name for it at the mo so I'm nicknaming it 'BLACKED'. In this project, I explore human textures and sexuality using mud, body paint and oil. The shapes created using photography of nude dancers and circus artists give the viewer a presentation of somewhat rock-like formations with the human factor added.
The following pic was taken yesterday with circus artist Ramona Reinvall:
That's it for now, I hope you're well and thank you for your patience and support, This group is slowly growing. I'm pretty damn thrilled about it right now!

2018-05-08 18:20:58 +0000 UTCSometimes I get stressed with the amount of things I can or want to do. The following post is meant to calm me down. It meant to remind me that even though I sometimes sit whole days in front of the computer, I actually manage to get quite a lot of shit done. This is what I've done since I arrived to London 2 weeks ago, after being away for 7 months: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/BenHopper/posts/10160390871635201" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/BenHopper/posts/10160390871635201</a> ;)
