” UNTITLED ” II
© Michael St.Mark 2011
Second in the series.
Playful reaction to the somewhat tedious and ubiquitous Untitled “title” of many contemporary artworks; the deliberate placing of the word in quotation marks intending to suggest the actual title is – or should be – evident from the image itself.

Space left after the metal viewpoint plaque at Orrest Head, Windermere, Cumbria ( Lake District) was stolen from its slate plinth in 2011, that had featured an engraving of a drawing by A. Wainwright, famous guidebook writer, fell-walker and artist. ( Subsequently replaced by the Wainwright Society )
Echoed in the missing view that day, due to an all-enveloping mist.

Regimented consumerism forced upon an increasingly controlled and dumbed-down population in a state of sheep-like stasis, who are motivated only by the false promise of future “greener grass”.
Metaphor and multi-interpretation key word for the Work; “CAGED”
