Artistic process
The expression of the object
Simone Benedetto's method consists of using several materials, such as semi-precious stones, bronze, cement, resin, and silicone.
This chosen approach by the artist illustrates the theme of the relationship between Man and his obsessions.
His sculptures have a great, clear and explicit visual impact. They push us to think on the effects of our growing addiction to technologies, social networks and the internet.
