Cornelia Parker recognises the importance of allowing space for a personal response to the work. She has said in interview, 'Every single person who sees
this work will have a very different response. All I try to do with my work is to make something that makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, and then I hope that it might do that for someone else.'

Our response will always be informed by our background, culture and personal experiences and will therefore change from person to person.
