2017 ‘Home’ The London Group and Friends‘Home’ The london Group and friends: The Shoreham Sculpture Trail Traditional figurines’ conformism is manifest in their reflection as a behavioural model regarding social class, gender and aspiration. They are delicate domestic cultural artefacts that may allude to human beliefs, myths and rituals. Dust is the substance that holds life together and could be viewed as a witness to human physical and spiritual vulnerability, ‘ashes to ashes, dust to dust’. This installation ‘Home’ is a microcosm of our world in 2017;Barker wants us to question perceptions of ugliness on the outside masking a beautiful interior and vice versa.Catastrophe and rejection eradicates the shelter and nurture of a home. Fragile creatures huddle to survive metamorphosed into objects of curiosity and anxiety. | 'Home' | Home-External-view-Site-specific-installation-for-The-Shoreham-sculpture-Trail.-2017.-Rosalind-Barker- | Home-site-specific-installation-for-The-Shoreham-sculpture-Trail.-2017.-Rosalind-Barker- |
