bARBER (b. 1982, US) lives and works in Midwest America. He is a non-representative figurative painter relying on elements of abstraction to personify the invisible nature of the individuals he paints. Heavily influenced by the music and makeshift bred from the underserved quadrant of Black American culture, he repurposes everyday materials, such as junk mail, packaging, and found objects, to construct artworks from a cultural perspective.
