Jubilant Space I-IV | Kim Benson

Kim Benson and Drew Peterson began collaborating on Jubilant Space I-IV in 2022, shortly after COVID-19 precautions eased. Their partnership developed organically, rooted in mutual admiration and the convenience of working as neighboring studio artists. With no set outcome in mind beyond the experience of collaboration, they embraced an experimental process that prioritized variety over edition size. Benson’s use of stencils and digitally printed films used in her paintings translated naturally into screen printing, sparking Peterson’s interest in techniques that could heighten the tactile qualities of the medium. Jubilant Space I-IV is a testament to the collaborative process between printer and artist, revealing a shared visual language that emerged through gesture, texture and intuition—an exchange marked not by precision, but by play, responsiveness and a willingness to embrace the unexpected.

Drew Peterson developed Entity Editions in 2018 as a fine art printmaking resource committed to the publication, production and education of print media through collaboration with emerging artists and educational workshops. Peterson has worked with numerous artists since launching Entity Editions, including Caroline Kent, Ruben Nusz, Frank Big Bear, Cameron Downey and Ta-Coumba Aiken, amongst others.
