By William Barnhart
William Barnhart’s work usually takes the form of figurative sculptures or paintings and monoprints of figures. Barnhart explores the drama, emotional complexities, and mental and spiritual realities of the human experience. Using figures suspended in action he mimics the human experience of every moment being suspended in time. He strives to engage the viewer in universal truths that transcend all boundaries and are accessible to anyone sensitive enough to understand his visual vocabulary. He explores the positive and negative emotional truths through the commonality of us all being human.
Barnhart has his BFA from Brigham Young University and his Graduate Studies degree from Arizona State University. He is based in Mesa, Arizona but has been in many solo and group exhibitions around the world, including showing his work in collections in the United States, Europe, and being a part of the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art in Wakayama, Japan. He has won numerous awards in art, architecture, and Environmental Design and even won the prestigious “Crescordia Award” in 2010.
