Cornelia Parker "Rorschach (Accidental III)"
D'Amelio Gallery
This event has ended.
In the Front Room, D’Amelio Terras presents a single sculpture by Cornelia Parker. Previously exhibited in the inaugural exhibition at the National Arts Center in Tokyo, Rorschach Accidental III (2006) consists of suspended silver plated objects such as candelabras, musical instruments, and pieces of cutlery that Parker has flattened using a 250-ton industrial press. The arbitrary symmetrical arrangement, determined by the artist allowing two-dimensional templates of the silver pieces to fall to the floor, recalls the inkblot patterns of the psychological Rorschach test.
