[8] Barclay's 2021 show, England’s Lost Camelot, focused on themes of black political resistance and folklore.
[3] Eddy Frankel, Art & Culture Editor for Time Out magazine, wrote that the exhibition works to make the viewer feel the sense of alienation and exclusion that Barclay experienced growing up black in the north of England.
[5] It included the work Pittu Pithu Pitoo, described by Art Monthly as "a giant pile of boulders" that obstructs the view into the exhibition.
Its form and title reference an Indian game, involving a ball and a pile of seven stones, played by the artist in his youth.
Featuring Barclay's spoken words, plus musical accompaniment from horns and percussion, it dealt with the artist's memories of growing up in 1980s Huddersfield.
