Reconciliation Sun
c. Michael St.Mark 2013
Context
________________________________________________________________________________
Conceptual-physical piece with echoes of alchemy, bringing together two traditional opposites in folklore – chalk and cheese – to create a mythical yet symbolic hybrid compound, playfully named Cheealk. Yet destroying forever the absolute verity of the familiar saying ” as different as chalk from cheese“, the work points the viewer toward one-ness of apparent opposites and reminds of the ever-present potential for resolution of seemingly intractable conflict, indeed the inexorable eventual destiny of everything being a return to unity.
