A conversation between Maria Lind and Bella Rune on 22 February, 2019

Maria Lind: Let’s begin by talking about what you are showing at Galleri Magnus Karlsson!

Working with common themes such as time, isolation, and transition, Amy Bennett is interested in the fragility of relationships and people’s awkwardness in trying to coexist and relate to one another. To that end she creates miniature 3D models to serve as evolving still lifes from which she paints detailed narrative paintings. Using cardboard, foam, wood, paint, glue, and model railroad miniatures, Bennett constructs various fictional, scale models. Recent models have included a town, neighborhood, lake, theater, doctor’s office, church, and numerous domestic interiors.
