Todd Andrew Babb was born outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania into a family of artists, inventors, and philosophers. Honing his artistic skill at a young age, Babb pursued a career as a painter soon after serving in the United States Air Force. Following his first business, Creative Artistry, where he worked with top corporations such as Dupont Corian and Walt Disney Company, Babb pursued a more conceptual modernist sculpting career to express his philosophical interpretations of the human condition. As one of the founders of the OPT (Open Positive Transference) art movement, Babb is dedicated to creating works of technical excellence and open-minded concepts that ultimately influence its spatial energy with the expectation of inspiring and generating a truly sanguine reality. Babb is currently based in South Florida where he sketches, paints, and sculpts his contemporary figurative pieces. His works capture motion and grace through their distinctly expressive lines and patterns. Each uninhibited piece is an exploration into the evolution of humanity because of his desire for progression. Concentrating on line and form as well as detail and aesthetics, Babb’s elongated and oftentimes abstracted bodies portray this adaptation of the human spirit. Artist Statement:As a sculptor, the human spirit is the only thing I find more inspiring than the human form. Capturing motion, emotive impressions, and the pure essence of humanity has always been my ultimate goal.Even as a progressive artist, I never attempt to change the principles of nature. On the contrary, my works are meant to harness the inevitable change of existence, which dematerializes chaotic change. My intentional illustration of the autonomous submission to change is intended to guide the subconscious and conscious minds of the viewers toward an informed conclusion in all situations, regardless of negative or positive challenges. Progressivism in art means to see that creation itself, as an entity in constant motion, is the very foundation and essence of what it means to create. Perhaps our greatest gift is to have a hand in the structure of divine persistence. What we do in and with this lifetime will continue the progression of creation eternally.
