STIRLING BARRETT
Stirling Barrett Photographic CollageStirling Barrett Photographic Collage

Stirling Barrett, is a twenty two year old native of New Orleans. He graduated from Metairie Park Country Day School where his talent was identified and his unique style of photography was birthed. He recently graduated from the Meadows School of Art at SMU in Dallas. His artwork revolves around the indigenous culture of New Orleans, especially relative to its diverse and historic architecture. His portfolio includes a portrayal of the recent "rebirth" of the city following the hurricane devastation of 2005. He creates unique collages by photographing small sections of his subject matter then pieces together a large number of photos to complete his final composition. A completed piece of art may contain anywhere between one hundred to five hundred individual images. He hopes that his artwork provokes a distinct emotion, where the beauty is found within a given moment, within each frame of time. He strives to achieve this goal by  distilling disorientation. Stirling concurs with the idea that John Gardner put forth when he stated, "Remember that art is a balancing of opposing points of view, an attempt to zero in on truth without cheating on the argument."
