New York-based visual artist Ben Mendelewicz’ work is not easily digested. We featured his “wonderfully loopy” work back in 2015 but since then, things have taken a turn into the realm of dark and twisted fantasy. Ben’s gross out collages sit in the awkward gap between funny and haunting, like memories from an acid trip gone badly wrong. Since graduating with a bachelor of fine arts from New York’s School of Visual Arts in 2013, Ben’s collages, comics and album art has been popping up in exhibitions in the U.S and U.K from Nottingham and Leeds to Austin and New York, for clients from Adult Swim, The New York Times, Funny or Die, Stussy, PopTV, Warner Brothers Records, Matter and in a ever-expanding list of magazines and zines. Among those, Ben has made work for the brilliant Mould Map from Landfill editions.
