Cornish sculptor Ben Barrell is inspired by the dynamic forces of nature, and his intention is to capture the energy of nature in his work.
Ben's joyous sculptural forms and shapes flow out of his approach to life and the things he sees and experiences around him. He has experienced first-hand the drama of the Atlantic Ocean and the waves that crash against the beach, the experience of sailing on it and surfing through it, the joy of encountering the species that call it home.
