Zoe Bent, Amanda Seyfried, July 2008
5 1/2” x 8 1/2”, Pencil
This sketch of Amanda Seyfried (Mamma Mia, Mean Girls) was based off the cover of the August 2008 Teen Vogue
August 2008 Teen Vogue
Zoe Bent, Eros and Psyche, 2007
9” x 12”, Pencil
This drawing is done from a photograph of the statue ‘Eros and Psyche’ in the Louvre Museum in Paris. I drew it because I am very interested in Greek mythology and love the story of Eros and Psyche.
Zoe Bent, David, 2007
9” x 12”, Pencil
This sketch is of the David, from the Academia
Museum in Florence. I drew it with my drawing class which was touring
Europe during the summer. Unfortunately, we
only had an hour in the Academia and I didn’t have the opportunity to
finish the sketch.
Zoe Bent, Untitled, 2007
20” x 26”, Charcoal
This still-life, which I did with my art
class at the Parsons New School, is a
demonstration of my work with light
and shadows.
Zoe Bent, Depressed Clown, 2008
12” x 16”, Oils on Canvas
This painting is very closely based on the painting ‘The Waiting Clown’ by Jack Faragasso. Although not a demonstration of originality, this piece exhibits technical skill and ability.
Zoe Bent, Bra Salesman, London, 2007
5.25” x 7”, Digital Photograph
Although the subject is in the background of the photo, the foreground bras frame and draw attention to his face. This setting leaves
the viewer wondering about the apparent dichotomy between
the subject’s profession and
gender.
Zoe Bent, Splash, 20085.25” x 7”, Digital Photograph
This photo was taken immediately after
throwing a rock into a pond with the intention of
capturing the splash. I like how this image
freezes a moment in time that could not be seen
without a camera.
Zoe Bent, The Passenger, 20085.25” x 7”, Digital Photograph
This photo was taken on a plane, with the sun outside the window
silhouetting the face of my companion in the window seat.
Zoe Bent, Untitled, 20085.25” x 7”, Digital Photograph
I took this picture of my sister on a cloudy day, but with the little sunlight silhouetting
her from behind. I had her dance and jump around while I photographed, in order to capture a motion shot like this
one. I like how every part of her is moving, her limbs, her hair, and the ties
on her bathing suit. This photo was one of five selected from
over 300 (all the photos were taken by photography students at my school) and
displayed at an art show (The Independent Visions at Alcon Gallery, 206
Fifth Ave, New York, NY, May 9-10, 2008).
