Though ‘Knife Apple Sheer Brush’ was explicitly a tribute to Stanley William Hayter, written after seeing an exhibition of his work in January 1948, it provides a vivid expression of Lye’s own aesthetic. The first draft was little more than a piece of didactic prose (‘Paintings state / Enduring qualities / Of individual experience / Isolated as art’), but Lye developed it into a sensuous lyric:
Take a
knife
To an
apple
The pith lies
sheer
With the mind take a
brush
Peel the skin of your own
pith
