Frith Street Gallery

I do sort of admire Cornelia Parker for her ideas (heard her speak very intelligently on Woman's Hour when this exhibition opened) but I have to say I just don't get it. There were 6 of these silver gelatin prints called Latent News. And, as my companion said, 'I could do that myself.' It's not that simple, of course, and I do (quite) like her exploded shed), but you need this stuff explained by the cognoscenti. Idea for my jewellery though - her Bullet Drawings (lead drawn from a bullet into wire and arranged charmingly with shadows behind on six white-framed panels) - made me think of framing some of my jewellery pieces as statements about the wearability of glass.
