Andrew Barton born in London, England 1970, Barton moved to Norway with his family in 1971.
Barton`s present work deals with bodily change, both internal and external.
Typical for this work is a focus on the torso or body fragment in combination with a foreign object or abstract shape. Religious influences are also evident in his work.
Reoccurring themes from the end of the 90`s. were; male fertility, non-loving sex, as well as destructive/self destructive tendencies. Barton prefers working from memory, seldom using live models or visual reference material ( photo/studies) for the figurative elements.
