Fiona Hall’s Art Practice
By captivating issues close to her heart Fiona Hall’s, Cell Culture (2002) resembles her personal view point of social history, economics, botany and the environment. She executes these ideas by using glass, metal, P.V.C, Tupperware and beads in vitrine. Halls materials are often selected based on symbolism, in this particular work beads are elected to display cultural exchange on a molecular level. She applies her selective materials by following this particular process. Her first step is to explore her ideas to assemble a unique juxapositioning form with immense conceptual strength Then she wire threads her beads and graft her Tupperware. Then she connects the various Tupperware forms to the glass beads. She uses this particular process to portray that it inevitable to have nature that isn’t impact by humanity. Her final step of Cell Culture also enforces this fact as she houses her work in a glass vitrine.
