‘Taking his cue from Jasper Johns’ reference to “things we see but never look at”, Terry Bond has since 1981 trained his questioning eye on the paradoxically hidden realm of the commonplace – seeking out revelation within areas of experience where it is traditionally regarded as being least likely to be found. Often parodying the rhetoric of high art, his humorous works – “humour is like a definition of creativity”(2) –  display a ‘down to earthness’ rooted in daily rituals and routines, and attempt to transform our complacent relationship to them.’
James Thurber.
