Bench Africa invites you to join us for an evening of fizz and photography!

Come and meet Australian photographer Matt Pearson and experience the breathtaking essence of Africa, at the launch of his stunning new African Collection.

Matt Pearson’s recent journey through South Africa and Namibia with Bench Africa was the focus and inspiration behind this vibrant collection of photographs. From the dramatic, towering dunes of Sossusvlei in Namibia, to the game-rich savannahs of the greater Kruger in South Africa, this exhibition perfectly captures the unique wildlife, the theatrical and ever-changing landscapes and the profound travel experiences on the vast continent of Africa. Follow his unforgettable journey from heart-thumping wildlife encounters to the dunes of Sossusvlei, to the villages of the Himba Tribe.

ABOUT MATT 

For more than 15 years Matt Pearson has been pushing the boundaries of fine art photography, creating an extensive catalogue of images of some of the worlds most beautiful land and seascapes.

With an impressive gallery consisting of Australia’s iconic ocean pools, rainforests, and the majestic Uluru, America’s astounding National Parks, as well as New Zealand’s towering mountains and fjords, Matt’s unbridled enthusiasm and appetite for adventure has allowed him to share his love of nature through his camera lens.

Over the past two decades Matt has accumulated a strong international following, with collectors of his work hailing from all corners of the world.

AFRICA.... what an incredible experience on so many levels! This collection is something so different to anything I’ve done before and I’m very excited to share it. I was within 3 meters of this lion when I shot this image (below). It was early in the morning and the whole pride was on the move looking for their next meal, as it had been 3 days since the last kill. As we approached, my guide said told me not to make any sudden movements. He stopped the open-top vehicle right alongside this beautiful majestic male and I was in absolute awe! My heart was racing as he fixed his sight right on me. I hid behind the lens trying not to make eye contact. My adrenaline was intense and his gaze was fearless.
