Ivan Pope:
The onlookers hear the BONK. They are drawn back to the artist who they have almost forgotten all about. They are amazed at what they see. (was a more lovely line ever written?).
They see the work. They get it. The work itself shows them the work. It is so obvious they forget their previous rejection.
And what is the work?
A bump the size of an apple and an apple the size of a bump
A perfect circular exposition. Graphical and conceptual. Grounded in the human experience, yet strangely unfamilar. The feeling that we are in new territory now. A realisation that they have no idea how the artist made this work, what the process was. An understanding that the process is actually irrelevant. The work stands alone, proud, strong and perfect.
