Oliver Barratt Playful, puzzling, ‘too serious to be serious’, Barratt aims for work that is simultaneously familiar and unfamiliar. Based in Kent for the past 20 years, Barratt has had a vast range of large-scale public and private commissions, including the City of Liverpool’s European City of Culture celebrations. He has exhibited at the Guggenheim and the Royal Academy. A graduate of the Falmouth School of Art, he was awarded a Henry Moore Fellowship in 1990.
Mark Cazalet Influenced by studying in India and the poetry of Edward Thomas and Robert Frost and the writings of Thomas Merton, an American Benedictine monk, Cazalet’s work emphasises the importance of stillness. Also a graduate of the Falmouth School of Art. Cazalet’s work features in many public collections including the Museum of London and the Fitzwilliam Museum. Cazalet teaches at the Prince’s Drawing School in London and West Dean College, Sussex.
