Cracker

By Di McGhee 2026

Cracker is a coastal installation,  made responsively, using materials from the shore. The cracker reference refers the coal that fills the middle of the nest form of the installation. My Granda used to collect cracker from the same beach to fuel his heater in his greenhouse. My Granda was a great influence on my connection with this beach, my collection of cracker on the beach celebrates this memory.
