Chris Beneman

Christine Beneman’s work combines architectural details and fragmented imagery to create reimagined urban landscapes.

She creates the print elements using collagraph plates and monoprints from hand-cut stencils. These unique prints are frequently cut out and layered a top of each other, allowing room for intention and improvisation. Her paintings are acrylic or acrylic and mixed media on panel.

Chris earned her degree at Bates College and has work in many public collections including the Farnsworth Museum of Art, Portland Museum of Art, New York Public Library and the Bates, Bowdoin and Colby College Museums of Art. She is an active member of Peregrine Press, the Boston Printmakers and the Monotype Guild of New England.
