Exploring the functionality of an umbrella within my After Day X apocalyptic framework. I believe that an umbrella carcass found in my imagined future would make some sense as an object so to cover it with rabbit skin would be a fairly natural thing to do. It would go beyond pure survival though since an umbrella is partly functional and partly ornamental. It may demonstrate a key point in the development of this new civilisation.

    Whoa Fiona! This is amazing…is this a part of the series? I can imagine it to be one of those things which really draws the edgy crowd….look out London and move over here she comes… Fiona is going to make you think and think hard on this one!

    I can’t tell you how much I am looking forward to this installation and the commentary you are about to share. I am preparing myself for quite an education!

    Hugs Fiona!
