Georgina Barney’s current practice revolves around the dye and pigment garden on site in the old playground at Primary which she developed and maintains with Primary and Audrey Leach (Primary Gardens).
She experiments with plant-dyeing and other processes such as extracting pigment and making paint. Georgina’s background is that of a contemporary artist. Prior to a shift into the territory of craft, she spent over ten years exploring ideas of ‘Art and Farming’, participating in national discourses about art and the rural.
