Post subject:  Antony

A man stood on a mountain side

Looked out at the world and said:

‘Look at me:

I am.

I stand on the arête and

Symbolise ‘it’

A hole in the ether,

A presence in existence.

I am iron

I am representation

I am freedom from the stereotype.

Look at me

Standing bare

Clothed in cling-film

Plastered, enfolded, transformed....

I am.

I exist.

I communicate.

Do you hear me?

The waves lap at my feet

The snow drifts at my knees

And people stare at my stance

My motionless

My lacking in breath-

Yet they buy the story

The philosophy

The presence of my being.

I am the iron man

I am Antony Gormley.’
