Ocean Song. Those who go down to the sea tell it's pearly story

2002

Dehydrated strawberries stitched with the artist's hair over an armature of sheep ribs, hair and beeswax.

"Christine's work has a medicinal quality and purpose. It has been made to ward off the fear of decay and transience as each of the materials used contains the memory of the creative process. In addition, these materials create new memories through the scents they produce. They are both the keepers and producers of memory - igniting, creating and containing them." Jacquelyn Murphy, Curator of Grapple.
