Continuing her preoccupation with labour, Tools and Boots contains tools of the trade, organised and arranged to bring some semblance of order to the brutal task that lies ahead of these individuals. Black shovels, pick-axes and gloves are all coated with thick tar. The installation appears to be consumed by this material, used to coat the roads and level the arteries of the mountains for the vehicles that thread through. The inanimate objects in Tools and Boots have been organised as one might arrange a still-life, which highlights the humanity that is missing from them. They serve no purpose without the army of men routinely utilizing them on cliff-faces and road-sides.
