To Bite the Bullet
We did a version of this picture on paper a while back for a show at Studio 10 but it was done on a pretty small scale and as we liked it we thought it deserved to be immortalised on a wall on a bigger scale. A brief bit of work later and we were ready to realise our idea. All we needed was a suitable wall, some paint and a little bit of time.
According to the internet an idiom is ‘a group of words established by usage as having a meaning not deducible from those of the individual words.’ We are called ‘id-iom’ and ‘to bite the bullet’ is a graphical representation of an idiom. You can see what we’ve done there can’t you? How self-referential and hip we are.
Cheers
