Garlic, carpet-snake skin, kangaroo claw, sheep teeth, bumble bee, chamomile flowers, fingernail clippings, gelatine capsules, hair strands, sewing needles. 120cm, 2012

A voodoo-like assemblage of futile weapons of attack and defence: The venom-less carpet snake; the docile bumble bee; inferior claws (it is the legs of the kangaroo that do the fighting) Chamomile and garlic protect and soothe. Needles to mend.

I was farming garlic at the time this exhibition came to a close. The sculpture joined the crop.
