"As artists, we have a story we tell ourselves. We have something we want to express and if we're lucky, what we've created is a vessel for meaning..............each person who comes up to the object, the image we create, they are going to bring their own image, their own background to it. And that's as true as any story we tell." Benjamin Frey
Benjamin Frey https://www.benjaminfrey.com/ grew up in a family of creatives. When he met Roderick Slayer, Ben discovered the impact mentorship would have on his artistic journey. He joined an art commune that the group called The Academy. Wanderlust has sent Ben on various life adventures including a time in Paris and selling his work on the streets of New York. The constant in his life has been pursuing his artistic vision with relentless passion. After years of chasing his own career, Ben was invited to join the board of the National Association of Independent Artists (NAIA), which he currently serves as the Board Chair. He is inspired to be part of an organization that vigorously works to support and mentor artists similar to how he made his start. Tune in for his fascinating stories.
