Mark Grieve is not his first stunt sculptural. Cycling is one of its themes preferred. By featuring an unorthodox way, Mark Grieve forces us to some reflections on his condition, his place in our societies. He emphasizes the word "recycling" by making us understand that the etymology of this term has exactly the word "cycle". Recycling is given a second life to an object or material. Re-cycle? Cycler twice? Bicycle? ... Yeah!
