"There are few sketches that contain the vigor and energy of 'Tom Barnes’ work. Uncensored loose tangles of gesture and undiluted colors glow from the page. Apart from their merit as feverish, stimulating, hyper-saturated images, Barnes’ sketches serve as an archive of past and present, comprising a portrait of a city."
