Cornelia Parker- born in 1956; an English sculptor and installation artist that engages in intervention of site-specific art.
Parker is best known for her large-scale installation such as Cold Dark Matter: An Exploded View. This art piece (garden shed) was blown up by the British Army and suspended the fragments as if suspending the explosion process in time. Great quote from Cornelia Parker herself about her artwork, "I resurrect things that have been killed of... My work is all about the potential of materials - even when it looks like they've lost all possibilities."
