As we watch the boy watching the ball, and as we watch the ball being watched by the boy, we too get caught in the alluring mantra composed through the ceaseless, repetitive and seemingly futile activity of a never-ending game with no obvious purpose or outcome. The blending of form, colour and movement all work together to recreate the sensory stimulating combination of boy and ball who whether motivated out of boredom; out of fantasies of grandeur; or out of an innate need, enter ‘the zone’ that engulfs their senses like a hypnotic meditation.
