Lucy
Could be in the sky with diamonds, but instead here she stands as a fantastical representation of the 3.2million year old remains of a female Australopithecus Afarensis. Being the first near complete skeleton of a bipedal hominin to be found, she is a cornerstone of human evolution.
In this triptych Lucy embodies the celebration of the opposite forces in creation that have governed and propelled us forward over the millennia. The boundaries between representation and abstraction, fact and fiction, animal and human, simplicity and complexity, have merged, thus allowing her to be both dead and alive in us all today.
