BIOGRAPHY
BARBARA COX
Trained as a lawyer, renowned photographer, and young mother,
Barbara Cox is a Belgian artist living near Brussels. Her dreamlike and colorful universe resembles an enchanted garden. Barbara aims to inspire wonder and happiness.
Exposed to art and museums from a young age by her parents, Barbara developed a passion for classical
dance, later expanding into fashion and architecture.
After several years as a lawyer at the Brussels Bar, she decided five years ago to pursue wedding photography, a source of daily happiness and satisfaction.
During the Covid pandemic, painting emerged as a way to brighten her narrowed life and unleash her overflowingcreativity. Quickly, the artist developed her distinct, cheerful, and innocent visual style, which she believes isessential to our lives.
Instantly recognizable, Barbara Cox‘s series of paintings, ‘Garden of Dreams,’ transports us into a dreamlike,
joyful, and enchanting world.
Like a journey, each viewer is invited to narrate their own story through the colors and shapes on the canvas. Throughout her works, one can discover ‘Barb Happy,’ a small ‘guardian of happiness’ character that appears in all her pieces. Other visual elements like strawberries, eyes, bees, along with positive phrases, create a dynamic and liberating ensemble.
“For me, art should bring positivity, calmness, and make the heart smile.” The casual and spontaneous aspect is claimed as essential by this lover of freedom who avoids authority and ‘what will people say.
The artist’s creative process is meant to be instinctive, detached from too rigid a framework.
Ambitious and passionate, Barbara’s art, born from a journey of re-enchantment, has enjoyed immediate
success and continues to inspire wonder
