Work No. 675; The Reconciliation Sun. c. Michael St.Mark 2013
Context
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Conceptual work with echoes of alchemy, bringing together two traditional opposites in folklore – chalk and cheese – to create a symbolic new hybrid substance playfully named “Cheealk”. Destroying forever the absolute verity of the familiar saying ” as different as chalk from cheese”, the work points the viewer toward oneness of apparent opposites, a reminder of the ever-present potential for resolution of seemingly intractable conflict, indeed, of the inexorable over-time destiny of all disparate things is to return to unity ( “eaten” by a dying sun in billions of years time )
