Mod Squad | Bob Barker

Mod Squad, signed Bob Barker limited edition artwork.

A nostalgic take on the ‘Mod’ subculture of Bob Barker’s youth. It encourages viewers to think about their own memories of this era.

Bob says: “This piece is about the feeling of just being there in the moment, of being a group of young people with a common interest. It’s that moment when you’re sat on the seafront listening to crashing of the waves as dusk slowly takes over and the funfair comes to life in the background. It’s the ambience of the evening as the mood changes, making it more exciting than the lunchtime hustle and bustle.”

As a youth, Bob liked the idea of buying flashy accessories for his scooters, as was the style at the time. If you look closely at the artwork, you can see that one of the pivotal characters has more mirrors than he knows what to do with!
