The Explosive World of Cornelia Parker
About
The Explosive World of Cornelia ParkerRosalind Whyte (UK)
Contemporary sculptor and installation artist Cornelia Parker is known for her large sale installations such as her literally explosive work Dark Matter: An Exploded View ,1991 (pictured above), in which Parker took the archetypal British garden shed and had it blown up by the Army! The debris was then installed around a light bulb, freezing the dramatic explosion in time. Intrigued with 'cartoon deaths' where things are squashed, stretched dropped from a height or detonated, she transforms everyday objects to investigate their nature and value. However, such destruction can also result in work of extraordinary beauty, an intriguing and unique creative process.
