Barry Hazard is an artist in Brooklyn, New York. He holds an MFA from the School of Visual Arts (2008), a BFA from Tufts University (1989) and a Diploma from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts (1988). In addition to being an artist, he is also a construction supervisor and youth worker.

Hazard makes sculpture-paintings and two-dimensional pictures using a heavy relief. His work incorporates landscape themes and narratives that focus on familiar subjects of beauty and our relationship with nature. Recent images consist of mountain tops, oceans, rivers, deserts, glaciers and forests. The work embraces inferences of environmental conflicts associated with a contemporary landscape. The landscapes are derived and composed from multiple photographs pieced together to make a unique semi-fictional space.
