'Cosmos VII' by Benny Archer is the seventh of an ever expanding series exploring the colours of our cosmos.

Nebulae, galaxies, the aftermath of an imploding star, or the opposite in scale - blood cells, circulatory pathways, atoms - all things viewers have expressed when viewing this piece in Bennys' gallery.

Aptly titled 'Elevation' by Stu(pictured), this piece raises the bar on large scale resin. 'Elevation' is bursting with 12 luscious custom gold paints that, under the glass-like resin finish, radiates a stunning glow.

'Dune' was inspired by the rippling sand dunes of the Huacachina, Peru. This piece features one shade of gold only, yet shines, shimmers and takes on an entirely different aura from each perspective. A personal favourite of Benny's.

'Bulo-Berte' was directly inspired by an aerial image of Somalia that Benny had a great desire to replicate as well as he could. A true test of his ability and skill as an artist working within his complex and unconventional medium. He couldn't be happier with the outcome, as he feels it represents the landscape to a tee, referencing composition and palette.

Inspired by the popular LEGO Sakura tree Benny built just hours prior to creating this piece, 'Sakura' is a pioneering feat in Bennys' medium.

'Void' cannot be discussed without talking about how much depth the piece impossibly contains. Viewers mention they could fall right into the work and lose themselves for days, or weeks at a time. Achieved with the use of layered acrylic and multiple layers of crystal clear resin, 'Void' could have you looking into the depths of space one minute and swimming the depths of the ocean the next.

Set into the bush land of Nillumbik, Benny is surrounded by mother nature and enjoys allowing it to inspire him. 'Gold Leaf' ironically does not contain any traditional gold leaf, just an array of beautiful custom gold and copper acrylic, finished beautifully with resin. To say this piece pops is an understatement.

The day after Benny created 'Sakura', 'Illusion' was brought into the world. It's shimmer is divine, thanks to Benny's proprietary medium. A real standout.

A new wave for Benny, 'Immaterium' was an experimental piece that thankfully, he got right. Its' depth and vibrancy is something to behold at live viewing.

'Tree of life' was borne from the nature of Benny's medium and an intentional slow drying process. Liquid gold has been carefully painted into textured crevices to create an organic form, not unlike a beautiful tree.

Bursting with vibrancy, a shimmering glow and metallic iridescence, 'Undercurrent' speaks to balance. Height and depth. Warm and cool. Light and dark. Perfect symbiosis.
