Ben is an abstract expressionist painter capturing the dynamism of our world – from bustling cityscapes to the constant flux of human experience. He hopes his art encourages the viewer to become empowered through embracing that energy. When not painting, Ben is tackling the challenges of journalism, AI, and misinformation at Google. He finds balance in the quiet of Frankfurt’s Westend, where he lives with his wife and dog.
