For nearly 60 years, British artist Phyllida Barlow created monumental installations that were both threatening and playful. She made large-scale sculptures using cheap, humble materials such as cardboard, fabric, plywood, gauze, and plaster. As she herself states, "In the past, sculpture carried historical narratives. Marble dominated and celebrated individuals." One of the individuals traditionally celebrated in sculpture was Darwin, who was a distant relative of hers—something she carefully concealed to avoid being seen as "privileged" because of her lineage. By rejecting traditional sculpture, she renounced her own past through her work, forging her unique artistic identity. Drawing inspiration from her practice, we will work with humble materials and create small-scale hanging sculptures.
