Information on work, Aproval Needed.
	When a man takes up the offer to become a Freemason he will most likely have little real understanding of what it is he is undertaking. He will do so for a variety of reasons. One being to gain approval from his Father, Peers, Colleagues and Business Associates. As he progresses through the levels he is like a child being lessoned to graduation. Hence in this work I have placed brand new child alphabet letters on these old English Masonic Aprons. And of each level. Each achieving coherence. Finally the Past Master has Passed. Has arrived and achieved acceptance. Approval. On one level it's simple symbolism. It is also the custom to seek approval for such related works before exhibition or publication and, while I would not wish to offend or be rude, I am also with this work saying that as an English Artist, in that culture and tradition, that I do not feel I need 'approval' to express myself creatively.
