Artists

Bill Baber

My artistic journey is a celebration of the overlooked, the discarded, and the forgotten. I embrace a post-consumerism aesthetic, redefining value by elevating that which society often disregards. For me, creativity thrives in the remnants of our material culture, where nothing is truly wasted but rather serves as a wellspring for innovation. At the core of my practice lies a commitment to resourcefulness and sustainability. My mantra of "never throw anything away" underscores my belief in working with the materials at hand and repurposing them into something meaningful. Through the lens of aesthetic deconstruction, I dismantle conventional notions of beauty, inviting viewers to find wonder in the ordinary and the discarded. My process is one of constant discovery and experimentation. I scavenge through scrap piles of steel and glass, extracting raw materials for my artistic stories. By cutting ideas apart, I uncover new possibilities in the fragments of the past. My work is a testament to the transformative power of creativity, where what is absent becomes the fertile ground for invention.
