Description/
Glenn Barkley’s work sits at a juncture between ceramics history, horticulture and curating. It is based on organic plant forms, but seen through the lens of ceramics history, it has distinct conceptual and formal relationships with ancient pottery, English and European porcelain, folk art traditions and production and studio pottery of the twentieth century. But it’s also about other more prosaic things too, like talking to people, the internet, poetry and popular song.
