Hatoum’s contribution for Cure3, continues her interest in material transformation. Chicken wire, a fencing material normally associated with creating barriers and borders, is now used to create an organic matter, a sculpture of a tree which extends up and branches out. At the end of each branch are red glass beads, suggesting buds about to blossom. As with many of Hatoum’s works, a sense of fragility is brought out from a cold fencing material to offer hope which flourishes in the most unlikely of places.
