Inspired by the surrealist movement, Sage focused his work on the notion of contrast: visual and technique. He produces poetic or disturbing associations, which share different emotions.
Sage Barnes has a very personal style, which is made of assemblage, urban art, or realist techniques. The public cannot see the face of his portraits, hidden by big artificial flowers.
At only 21, Sage is a very promising artist, especially for the younger generation, as he explained in a recent interview: « The younger generation associates most art with only what they've seen in their textbooks. I want them to connect with art like they connect with other creative forms like music.
