The art of monetising fear Script Politicians have long mastered the art of monetising fear, transforming societal anxieties into powerful tools for garnering votes, donations, and loyalty. By amplifying threats, whether real or exaggerated, they create a sense of urgency that compels the public to rally behind them, funding campaigns and endorsing policies that promise protection. This strategy not only secures their power but also perpetuates a cycle where fear becomes a lucrative commodity, much like how alarmist narratives drive engagement and profits in broader discourse. So why don't more contemporary artists leverage or expose this political platform, given that power and art have always been symbiotic?

JJFBbennett Artist Statement
JJFBbennett is a digital platform that showcases an artist's journey through creativity, innovation, and personal exploration. It is a journey in which we can all participate.
JJFBbennett's art is an odyssey from the tangible world of studio art into the boundless universe of digital and virtual spaces. Under the handle JJFBbennett, the artist explores the intersections between technology, ancient architecture, and spiritual aspirations, creating a hive-like, translucent metaverse that branches into various technological dimensions.
JJFBbennett's work begins in physical spaces, capturing the essence of night, sleep, mood, emotion, and consciousness through series like "This Branch." JJFBbennett delves into the transformative power of darkness and light, using it as a metaphor for creativity and introspection. From there, the real transitions into the digital, where the art evolves into something more interactive, like in "JJFBbennett X Verse," where the envisioned art is not just an object to be observed but an environment to be experienced.
JJFB Bennett's creations are a product of inspiration and deep contemplation. They are influenced by various sources, from poetry about human conditions to vignettes reflecting on societal interactions with technology. This process involves deeply contemplating how art can exist and affect a virtual landscape, questioning the traditional boundaries of art and its reception.
Each digital work invites the viewer to join this discovery journey, where art transcends the image and becomes an immersive experience, influenced by ancient wisdom yet propelled by the digital age. The work is not just seen; it is felt, interacted with, and lived through, aiming to connect on a visceral level, offering them space to consider their existence within an artistic narrative.

Puppet Master The narrow, high-walled passage swallowed the sound of my boot scraping a broken cobblestone, the echo sharp in the dry air. Above, a sliver of unforgiving sunlight cut down, carving deep shadows where the damp, mossy scent of the gully was now replaced by the smell of dust and ancient stone. I paused, looking not just at my gloved hand—the leather scuffed from my descent, but at what was attached to it. Thin, nearly invisible lines, like high-tensile wires , stretched from the articulated cuff on my wrist and disappeared into the air above the path. I tracked them with my eyes until they converged on a small, stone figure standing motionless in the centre of the walkway. It was a crude marionette , barely a foot tall, carved from the same pale, cracked stone as the surrounding walls. Dressed in a simple tunic, its blank, oval face held a radiating sense of expectant waiting. Its arms were held out, palms up. I held the strings. Yet, the feeling was not one of cont...
Scene 1 It smells like… time down here. Not just damp earth or rot, but something older. A primal scent that’s been waiting in the dark for a millennium. I’m recording this at the bottom of the scar somewhere in the anomaly. In my mind, it's called the Necropolis Gully . My helmet is trying to map it—casting these sterile, digital grids over the moss and the stone—but the data doesn’t make sense. It’s glitching. It’s shuddering against the reality of this place. I don't know why I'm here, looking at ruins. Just... debris. But in the ruins, I found the ghosts of a future that never happened. I was walking over shards of polymerised memories . This was once a city. It was meant to be the heart of a new world that... simply stopped. It wasn't an engineering failure. It was a failure of existence. Holding that slate, I felt this... weight. The grief of the architect. The "wounds of unbuilt dreams." I realised then that this isn't a graveyard for people. It’...
