The IRONIKON consists of the meeting between overlooked elements. That is the irony of the icon: The gray surface of slate, the silence of blackboard lacker, the cracks and sighs of old metal, the echo of rust, runaway brushes, splintered pieces of plastic flattened by trucks – Scratched and frayed the pieces are gathering into signs of an alphabet in an unborn language. That’s how the overlooked acquires its unexpected triumph.
