BENJAMIN FREDRICKSON x HENZEL STUDIO rug, ATOMIC WEDGIE

Benjamin Fredrickson (b. Minneapolis, MN, USA, 1980) is a New York City-based photographer whose images centre around queer fetish subculture. He attended Parsons Paris and attained a BFA from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. He has exhibited work at Daniel Cooney Fine Art (NYC), the Museum of Arts and Design (NYC), the National Arts Club (NYC), Yale School of Art (New Haven, CT), and the Leslie-Lohman Museum (NYC). Fredrickson's work has also been reviewed in publications including i-D, The New Yorker, and OUT Magazine. Wedgies is the artist's first book.

Henzel Studio translates the work into a rug. The Swedish studio's artist programme commissions artists and estates to create rugs as works in their own right, authored by the artist, hand-made in limited editions and meant for the floor as much as the wall.
