Barry Cowan:
Across the Multiverse

This collection of portraits celebrates my friend Barry Cowan, whom I met while working at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) in 2000. An artist of remarkable imagination and dedication, Barry has long inspired me with his creativity and passion for the arts.
In this series, the multiverse unfolds through vivid reinterpretations of Barry in extraordinary forms — each portrait a glimpse into a parallel reality where his essence takes on new dimensions. Through bold color, digital texture, and shifting perspectives, these works explore identity, creativity, and the infinite potential of artistic transformation. The result is both a tribute and an exploration — a journey through the many possible Barrys that exist beyond the bounds of our own world.
