In these works, Parker harkens back to childhood and the process of crushing coins on railway tracks. Erasing their intended use, she juxtaposes the value of silver with its flattened fate, thus changing their meaning, visibility and worth. Explaining her process, Parker describes her flattened objects as physical proof of the destructive powers of the world, exploring their potential meanings after their use as everyday objects has been eroded.
