WAYNE BARKER<br />

LAND AND DESIRE<br />

South African history cannot be separated from these two words because ultimately<br />

it is about the desire for land. Histories are always layered and underpin present realities –<br />

<strong>Barker</strong> has expressed this by drawing the viewer into a darker level of the canvasses.<br />
