Craig Barrow is an artist and designer working in the areas of object, sculpture and space.

I was commissioned by designer Nelly Ben Hayoun to design and produce a series of props to accompany her Disaster Playground project being shown at the Z33 House for contemporary art, Hassalt, Belgium, which ran from 5th October until 4th January 2015.
The pieces included a desert highway diorama complete with mini cacti; world map pool table, with hand carved world relief map flocked in blue velvet and accompanying curved benches; Route 66 diorama; hand-painted Route 66 sign; laser-cut hand-painted Disaster Playground emblem sign; flags and many various other small objects and props.
Disaster Playground is a creative platform investigating the design of emergency procedures within NASA and other global space programmes.
A big thank you to Julia Barklem, Camilla Lambert, Sarah Hibbert, Rob Grimshaw, Isobel Goodacre, Morgan Chugg-Jones, Josh Bitelli, Zosia Poulter, Roger and Barbara Laschelles, Keiren Jones, Maddy Flynn, Raissa Pardini, my mum and anyone else I've forgotten.
