JAIME BENNATI

BIO
Jaime Bennati creates sculptures and installations that build on her interest in the phenomenon of things found in nature. She works in large scale through accumulating and reusing wasted materials. Each material she uses goes through a labor-intensive process that involves lots of investigating and experimentation. Her most recent work involves researching the history of an abandoned building in Greektown, Baltimore. This eastside neighborhood has become apart of her investigation to understand the industrial history in steel production as a livelihood and way of life effecting the formation of communities in the city. She hopes that her work will allow others to understand the importance of preserving history and the impact we have on our landscape and environment. In May 2008, she graduated from The Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) with her B.F.A. in Sculpture and a concentration in Graphic Design. She is currently working on new research for her next body of work after living in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil this past fall for two months. In July, she will travel back to Brazil in order to gather additional research and information for her new work. She has exhibited around Baltimore along with Columbus, Ohio and Brooklyn, New York. She was born and raised in Westerville, Ohio near Columbus.
