Cornelia Parker: Thirty Pieces Of Silver, 1988-9




  • As Andrew recommended I research in a previous tutorial, I looked at this piece by Cornelia Parker.
  • Material & Form: The silver objects have all been flattened, and some of the pieces look slightly like my own work with the creases from flattening.
  • Placement: The way they are suspended by thin wire to float just above the ground at even height is something to consider.
Reflection:

  • Flattening found metal could be a route to explore, especially if has a value like silver. However this doesn't connect that well with my aesthetic theme, other than the silver metal.
