In his “Flow” series, Benjamin Shine shapes netting into captivating and serene portraits. The artist, inspired by the concept of mindfulness, has taken this approach to multiple scales. His recent, outdoor "Sky Flow" sculpture "Quietude" represents a shift forward for the artist, influenced by the smaller works before it on canvas. ("Quietude" photos by Mindbodygreen.)

These works centre around ideas of energy, impermanence and the relationship between the spiritual and the superficial.

In the hands of British artist Benjamin Shine, a piece of tulle isn't just for making fancy dresses and curtains - it becomes a great material for creating amazing realistic "paintings." Using an iron, Shine sculpts, presses and pleats the huge single piece of tulle, whose transparent qualities give the portrait more texture and depth.
