LOUIS BENJAMIN BARRETT

Louis Benjamin Barrett (b.1999) is a designer and artist based in London. 

Graduating from Central Saint Martins in 2021, his work reflects an interconnectivity between digital and physical; a testament to how technology can be used to enhance our perception of the natural world - to augment and metamorphose. Through this process of recontextualisation, he explores how the beauty of organic forms can be venerated, creating functional, sculptural objects that uphold yet transcend the archetype of their predecessors.
