Beached 2
Sculpture by Sally De Courcy (United-Kingdom)

Beached 2 - a COVID19 formation of cast driftwood reflects isolation of shielding, feeling beached/stranded. Bound by bloody bandages and rendered meat-like it references Florence Nightingale, Nightingale hospitals and the wet markets. Doll parts reflect depersonalisation of isolation. Hands represent hand washing and the inability to shake hands and bones an emblem in much of the artist's work express human mortality. Bats the vector of Covid19 invade the sculpture.

Currently being exhibited at the borders festival, fragmented identities exhibition in the art contemporary art space, Venice. Also to be exhibited at the TY Pawb Open, Wrexham, Wales, Uk currently postponed due to COVID-19.
