Projects often call to question the subtle yet real ways that race, especially with relation to divergent masculinities, is created and disseminated.

Barrois Jr. has also been the recipient of numerous grants, including the Lighton International Exchange Programme, Chenven Foundation, and Kittredge Fund, as well as residencies at the Jan Van Eyck Academie and Bemis Center for Contemporary Art. He received his MFA from Washington University in St. Louis as a Chancellor’s graduate fellow in 2013 and his BFA in painting from the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore in 2006.
