ABOUT
Mary Stengel Bentley is a multidisciplinary artist based in Nashville, TN, working primarily in painting, drawing and public installation. Rooted in her practice is the study of unconscious mark making; she is driven by a desire to create images that spark life through an expressive style. Nature is a constant source of MSB’s inspiration as is music, color and finding unique ways to forge connection.
In her murals and public installations, Mary is committed to creating art that interacts with its environment in order to produce an emotional impact that is unique to any given space. Her artwork aims to emphasize the exclusive nature of the sites that exhibit her work.
