A Blot, Based on New Method, Plate 10. Verso: A Clumsier Blot 

Curator: Editor: Okay, so this is Alexander Cozens's "A Blot, Based on New Method, Plate 10." It’s this intriguing, inky landscape, or rather, a suggestion of one. It feels almost like a dreamscape, something glimpsed out of the corner of your eye. What do you see in this piece? Curator: It's a landscape born from intuition. Cozens was after something deeper than just representation, wasn't he? He believed these 'blots' could unlock our imagination. It’s like finding shapes in clouds, but guiding the clouds himself! The fun is in what *you* bring to it. Do you see a majestic mountain? A forgotten forest? Editor: I think I see both, actually. It’s interesting how he uses such an abstract technique to evoke such specific feelings. Definitely makes you wonder what other hidden landscapes are lurking in unexpected places. Curator: Precisely! And perhaps, within ourselves, too.
