Joseph Barbara
Profile
I’m a full time artist living in Malta (an Island in the Mediterranean Sea). My medium is acrylic, although sometimes I like to mix other materials in the paintings. I paint in various styles depends on my mood.Sometimes Surreal, others Prismatic or even Abstract. I also enjoy creating installations from discarded materials such as plastic water bottles,wooden cable reels and scrap metal.
Through my art I try to deliver messages and protests concerning the environment.
My aspirations for the future of art are to give more life to art and instill it into the next generation.
