Cornelia Parker's 2003 installation, "Subconscious of a Monument", consists of hundreds of small, suspended fragments that resemble stone or rock. The work alludes to the idea of a monument being fragmented or destroyed, evoking a sense of loss, decay, and memory. The delicate threads suspending the fragments create a sense of fragility and emphasize the ephemeral nature of time and memory. The work challenges viewers to consider the idea of monumentality and the traces left behind after destruction.
