23.09.–27.11.2016

Ikon, in collaboration with The Fruitmarket Gallery, Edinburgh, presents a major exhibition by Glasgow-based artist Sara Barker.

Barker’s artistic practice operates on the boundary between sculpture, painting and drawing, delicately tracing lines in space. Incorporating rods of steel and aluminium, sheets of glass and painted sections, Barker’s artworks are sometimes wall based, sometimes floor based – and sometimes moving from floor to wall and back again – reflecting her interest in how space may exist in the mind, in stories and in memories. For this exhibition Barker presents existing installations as well as a new work made especially for Ikon.
