Sculpture Saturday – In the Outdoor Sculpture Court at the Barbican

May 16, 2026

Colombian artist Delcy Morelos explores our relationship with the earth in a monumental, site-specific installation made of soil, clay and fragrant spices. The piece is called ‘origo’ which means origin in Latin.

You are encouraged to step inside this massive sculpture and explore the tunnels. It is the first installation in 10 years at the Barbican Sculpture Court.

Tuesday Textures – From the Barbican

art made with textiles has the most amazing textures

On our recent trip to London, we stopped at the Barbican to see the show, Unravel: The Power of Politics of Textiles in Art. The first thing we saw was the exterior of the gallery cloaked in fabric.

Inside the gallery over 100 artists had works of textile art on display. Many of the pieces were very textural which was quite evident from a distance and others made for wonderful close-up shots of the detail in the pieces.
