"My work is all about the potential of materials, even when it looks like they have lost all possibilities."
Cornelia Parker
In the course of making her work she has shot at objects, thrown them from cliffs, blown them up and rolled over them with a steam roller. Her sculptural processes have been described as mimicking cartoon deaths making her works both dramatic and delicate.

Cold Dark Matter: An Exploded View was originally an ordinary garden shed. Filled with junk Cornelia asked the British army to blow it up, then collected the remains and reassembled them as suspended fragments frozen as is at the moment of detonation
