Barrie J Davies

Barrie J Davies’s artwork is an exotic cocktail of graffiti, street art, graphic art and pop art. He graduated in Fine Art from the Southampton Institute in 2000, and gained his Masters Degree at the University of Wales Institute, Cardiff in 2004. He now lives and works in sunny Brighton, where his studio is situated in the wonderful Lanes. His work is inspired by social media, graffiti, consumerism, pop culture and the urban life he inhabits. His artwork is made with a mixture of acrylic, household paints, spray paint, glitter, screen printing, markers, comic books, digital print and found objects.

Barrie’s fun, colourful, psychedelic and subversive pop artwork is inspired by street art and has a humorous approach to expose the human condition: notions of success, money, glamour, love, death, sex, gender and religion, which are picked at with dry comedic use of tragedy meshed with absurdity.

Barrie’s work is in many public and private collections worldwide, as well as being by owned by comedian Noel Fielding and superstar DJ Norman Cook (aka Fatboy Slim).
