Barry Marshall
Barry Marshall lives in Suffolk and transforms unique pieces of found wood, that have been sea-washed or found by the river, weathered with character as a starting place for his wall sculptures. He combines the found wood as the base, on which he places handmade copper fish, either copper coloured or clear blue, to create wonderful wall sculptures. This creates alchemic pieces of sculpture with a special sense of history.
