Hand Signed on an authenticity certificate, each signed with certificate by artists; issued by Plinth and Ikon Gallery who commissioned the work // STOP by Cornelia Parker, a 2015 metalcut piece, is a minimalist sculpture that commands attention through its simplicity and boldness. The artwork consists of the word STOP in raised, bold letters against a sleek, black rectangular background. By isolating this universally recognizable word, Parker transforms a familiar command into an object of contemplation, inviting viewers to reflect on the nature of control, limits, and pauses in daily life. The choice of monochromatic tones and clean lines emphasizes the word’s power, making it both an art object and a statement piece.
