A photograph of boxes of broken china stored in a bedroom.Crack'd for Christchurch comments, "May 2011, Crack'd has been going for a month. The china begins to collect in our spare room. It often arrived covered in liquefaction and broken glass, food and mud, and it was incredibly bulky. It had to be cleaned, sorted, but not broken down, before it was stored."
A photograph of members of Crack'd for Christchurch working in their workshop. A number of mosaics of flowers and leaves have been laid out on the table in front of them. Boxes of broken china are organised on the shelf behind.Crack'd for Christchurch comments, "Back at the workshop, flower making continues. You can see a table covered with flower motifs, looking amazing. We had to make the flowers at home in the evenings as we all worked during the day. After much trial and error our flower experts (Helen, Sharon, and Jennie) came up with a clever way to attach the tiny pieces to mesh, so they could be transferred to the chair easily. From left: Sharon Wilson, Helen Campbell, and Shirley Walden."
