  then "Rock on" conveys an affirmation to continue and persevere in 'rocking.'
  
  Pierre Jardin's first statement of "rock on"
  was another rebus where "rock"
  was written with a simple stone
  standing in for the word.
  
  Then new opportunities presented themselves
  When Pierre balanced one large piece of pink granite
  on another one that served as its base.
  
  This pairing gave "rock on" a literal sense,
  one rock upon another.
  Jardin made a petriverse in which
  the word rock was on the word on
  and the shape of the words 
  mimicked the shape of the sculpture.
  
  The literal self-reference of
  stones and words was 
  iterated into its simplest
  form: "rock. on." 
  
  Finally, Jardin returned to the original sense of the statement,
  and extended the sense of the spirit of perseverance 
  to the "keep calm" meme.
