J’aime Apolonia Sokol’s paintings.

J’aime the fact that they come from an inner mould. J’aime the fact that they model the world from scratch. J’aime the fact that there is something rudimentary about them. J’aime the fact that they don’t imply anything beyond themselves. J’aime the fact that they give themselves as the gods do: by withdrawing. J’aime the fact that they are funny without being parodies. J’aime the fact that they take aim at some point. J’aime the fact that they are slightly naive.”
