Tim Barber (Born in 1979, in Amherst Massachusetts)

Known for elegantly composed observations that locate complex beauty in the seemingly mundane, from portraits to landscapes to narrative scenes, Barber approaches all of his subject matter with a palpable delicacy. Expanding on amateur aesthetics, Barber's images can feel both spontaneous and carefully composed. The line between autobiography and fiction is as ethereal as the overall tone of the work. In the case of Barber's photography, ambiguity is seductive, and the lure of fantasy eclipses the security of literality.
Recent exhibitions include: Untitled Photographs (OHWOW, 2010), New York Minute (Garage Center for Contemporary Culture, Moscow, 2011), Portrait of a Generation (Hole Gallery, 2012).
As photographer, curator and designer, Barber runs the creative community platform www.time-and-space.tv (formerly known as tinyvices.com)
