ANNETTE NYKIEL

CONTAINED BY FIRE

H – 25, W – 45, D – 40

Materials: foraged palm inflorescence, foraged palm fibre.

Techniques: random weave, plied fibre string.

Photographer: Annette Nykiel, Josh Wells

Made while isolated and under threat by fire, the random weave contains the chaotic experience. The highly inflammable material symbolises the threat but also the post fire rebirth. A strong base of a community pulling together, with tenuous outside support and vulnerable to the vagaries of nature.
