Forsaken by Ben Adams
Forsaken
Acrylic on canvas panel
Each person in prison is traveling down a path that leads to them being left behind. Not only by loved ones, but by life itself. Prison is many things, but nothing more than desolate.

Identity Statement
I can't help but to see identity as a variable. One that can only be governed by perspective. I have been many things to many people over the years. Some of those qualities have been counted as a great value, and others as quite detrimental. I think that all would agree that I have always been able to adapt and overcome. In truth, I expect only to be seen as I am in each moment. It is my hope that whoever that may be, it will in some way to be of value to someone.
What role does art play in your life?
Art for me sometimes gives purpose to a life void of relevance. Often times it is an expression of a thought or a feeling.
