Barnaby Barford is a skilled artisan, but prefers to work with off-the-shelf material. Using ordinary mass-produced figurines and modern mini-sets, the artist turns them into funny, noisy, sometimes ironic narrative scenes. In his latest series, The Good, The Bad, The Belle, the master explores the concept of today's youth through fast food, reckless behavior, youthful interests and preferences.
Barnaby Burford has a special approach to working with ceramics. Collecting ancient figurines and figurines of mass production, which most people would not pay attention to, he transforms them beyond recognition. Starting to cut, glue and paint the starting material, the artist creates miniature sculptural installations depicting sinister and deeply sardonic sculptures.
With the help of such a versatile material as ceramics, you can realize any creative idea and idea. Burford's collection "The Good, The Bad, The Belle" reflects the view of youth as seen by the adult generation.
In the artist's work, the boundaries of various types of art merge and intersect. He works in completely different fields, ranging from the art of installations, reproducing humorous and provocative scenes, to creating his own sculptures and furniture. Barnaby Burford is an artist and designer born in 1977 and currently lives and works in London. After graduating from the Royal College of Art in 2002, Barnaby Burford has held exhibitions of his work overseas, including Miami, Japan, and Europe.
