Cornelia Parker was the first major survey exhibition of the artist’s work in the Southern Hemisphere. The Sydney-exclusive exhibition featured over 40 artworks from across the art ist’s career, including large-scale installations, embroideries, works on paper, video works, and a selection of small-scale sculptures and objects.Cornelia Parker OBE is known for her transformation of everyday objects into unexpected, haunting scenarios. In the artist’s hands domestic and familiar items are exploded, shot, turned back to front, and rearranged in often surprising ways. Working with sculpture and installation, as well as drawing, photography and film, Parker positions her subjects at the very moment of their transformation, suspended in time and completely still.Edited: Rachel KentHardcover26.5 x 20.5cm156 pages Show more
