The cornerstone of the exhibition Moment of Silence is an homage to Bennett’s father, wife, and brother, who passed away in 2018. The tryptic stands as the centerpiece of the exhibition inciting a moment of silence, but also highlighting Bennett’s intimate mourning as he tries to quiet exterior noise to lose himself in each painting. Significant loss and deep examination of personal grief, allowed Bennett to journey within the true and infinite possibilities of himself, in order to better comprehend how he determines the conscious contact he has with outside forces.
