“Joris Benjamins, aka Bby Eco, is an Amsterdam based visual artist and recording musician bringing a whole new spirit to ‘earth conscious’ tracks. He recently debuted his new album titled Grow!, which embodies many facets of his personal anecdotes, as well as professional inspirations. It is a harmonious space between tension and tenderness which portrays a profound connection between nature in opposition to music. Bby Eco utilises the wonder of nature as a metaphor and source of energy, funnelling it into something which you can call ‘eco-pop,' bestowing a world into being, sentiment to bloom and serves as a catalyst for an ever-expanding metamorphosis.”
“...Playing with the viewer’s gaze, her use of dramatised doe eyes hypnotises us, urging your to keep on looking and decipher her romances. Duong’s caricatures are reminiscent of her daily life and should be read like a visual journal. She intentionally exposes the fragility, beauty, and raw tenderness of her subjects. Each canvas representing another accurate depiction of individuals in non-idealised positions.”
