Benka

Benka was born in 1983 in Abu Dhabi. He spent his childhood in France, before moving to Vienna (Austria) where he lived for 10 years.

Benka is an artist who aims to expose the question of the robotization of our world, and opposes underestimating the consequences of artificial intelligence in contemporary society. He uses captchas in his paintings as a symbol of his artistic struggle. Benka pursued a career in music and clinical psychology, with a focus on smartphone addiction, before becoming a self-taught artist in 2015.

Benka is now considered as an international artist, and showcased in different galleries and fairs in Europe and US.
