Creative Access Description

A colour portrait image of works installed in a gallery space with white walls, cement floors and a glass window wall at the back. On the right side of the image, is a 16 feet high column of books stacked on top of each other with fake flowers coming out of the stack, some scattered in between the stack, some lining the corner edges, and some sticking out at the top. At the bottom of the column, there are more stacked books with white paper flowers laid around and on top of them. Under the books, there are circular mirrors peeking out the edges with a couple of paper turtles in the corners. There are also copper crutches positioned upright surrounding the column with clusters of colourful fake paper flowers affixed to them. The window wall behind the column is covered with images of stacked books. To the left of the column there are fruit arrangements on the floor and the wall behind it there is a tall rectangular work made up of images of stacked books with a silver tape grid and frame with fake flowers arranged in single rows and some in clusters.
