Barbabeau Colossus - 2025

Acrylic and spray paint on bulk bags

106 x 150 x 126 cm


“The first piece I encounter is Parnas’ ‘Barbabaeu Colossus’ (2025), which references a French TV character known for his sensitivity amidst torment. Here, represented with large eyes, scribbled on stuffed FIBC bags, Barbabaeu’s wide stare greeted you on entry and dominated the space like a nervous energy cursed to be perceived. The textures and materiality reminded me of a bouncy castle.”
