Creative Access Description

A colour landscape image of four works installed in grunt gallery’s space, two on the ground and two on the walls. In the centre of the image is a platform with a plain beige fabric covering the top and striped beige fabric skirting the sides of it. Atop the platform is a casket-like shape wrapped in a brown, striped fabric with a piece of red silk placed over it on the left side and a scalloped-edged, white silk wrapped around the right side. There is a garland of red, yellow and green cocoon-shaped, soft tufts laid over the top of the casket. Also placed on the platform is a stuffed rabbit sitting on the left end of the casket and a single red rose lying beside the casket with its head on a folded-up piece of fabric. Behind this, there are two altar-like sculptures mounted on the wall with white fabric draped over them and a single red carnation laid on each of the altars. To the right of the casket is a concrete slab, lying very low on the ground covered and surrounded with flowers, dried moss, lemons and potatoes.
