Ben Weaver is a poet, songwriter, letterpress printer/book maker, public speaker, and endurance cyclist. Ben creates work that breaks down the emotional and systemic structures separating humans from the ability to feel our connections to the greater web of life and each other.
The songs and poems Ben writes and performs work to dispel illusions of division. Ben’s music and creative practice holds open space for the wisdom that sits within the trees, rivers, rocks, plants and animals to reignite the inherent stories of wildness and mutuality living inside us all.
During his 4 week residency at the Anderson Center Ben is continuing work on a new group of original songs, as well as a poetry manuscript-in-progress. He is excited about spending time the on-site Printmaking Studio, working on several small print pieces excerpted from the manuscript and songs he will be writing. He feels honored to have been gifted the time to focus on my work while in the presence of the other artists who will be at the center, as well as the greater Red Wing community, both human and more than human!
