Winnipeg-based artist Daniel Barrow is best known for enchanting performances in which he manipulates his drawings in an overhead projector to create animated film-like sequences while narrating the story. Barrow has also performed with the music group The Hidden Cameras and most recently created a solo event a the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art.
In the tradition of Winnipeg's Royal Art Lodge, which he has been associated with, Barrow has developed his own cast of recognizable characters, chief among these an adolescent boy who radiates the anguish, fantasies and touching ambivalence of teenhood as he negotiates between childhood and an adult future.
His work was also seen at Jessica Bradley Art & Projects with the work of Shary Boyle, Cooper Battersby and Emily Vey Duke in the exhibition Fantasia.
