Benjamin Renoux explores the construction and awareness of identity in his work. Photography, and its inherent inability to express reality in full, is often the starting point. He uses various mediums and techniques in dialogue to examine the confrontation between personal identity and the different realities that shape our contemporary world.
Benjamin Renoux was born in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. He lives and works between London, UK and Berlin, Germany. He graduated with a Master of Fine Art from Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London in 2014.
