Artist Statement

Ben Windle has been a lot of things in his lifetime. A native of the Frankford neighborhood of Philadelphia, a former Muay Thai fighter, an EMT with the Philadelphia Fire Department, a photographer, an amateur naturalist (working on his “master naturalist” designation), a lover of nature and wild spaces, and more important than anything else a father, a husband, a son, an uncle, and a brother.

Ben is now also accidentally an artist. Ben first started by filling the time between dropping his daughter off at daycare and picking her up with bird walks. He was not consciously looking for anything besides birds, but unexpectedly found himself healing holes in his heart left by loss with a joyful appreciation of nature and a creative spark he had not felt since childhood. 

Through photography Ben wants to elicit the same sense of awe in the viewer that he experienced first hand. His spirit shines through his work and inspires a love of nature and wild spaces in others.
