Description: This picture is an expression of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the arena of contrasting tone and hue where the relationship of the viewer to the sculpture is in some sense active rather than simply one of passive comprehension. The idea behind the Suprematist school is that it encourages the artist to understand the composition in terms of dimensionality, rather than mass. The essence of post-impressionistic art is that it enables the artist to define form in terms of space, rather than mass. The never-ending curves are enjoined in a homage to stereometric construction. This picture is an expression of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the creation of the world of colour and space where the relationship of the viewer to the image is an image of the process of creation. Contrasts of summer and winter march across the expanse of this prototype. Such forms, serene and tranquil, create complex and fascinating interactions with the self. The world of night and day of Sol Aris's previous works are still present, but in a different form. The essence of post-impressionistic art is that it encourages Sol Aris to understand the composition in terms of space, rather than weight. In the Suprematist theory, the visual phenomena of the unexplored world are, in themselves, meaningless: the significant thing is feeling, as such. In this piece Sol Aris depicts the relationship between the senses of sight and taste. Such forms, both monumental and poetic, create complex and fascinating interactions with the environment. The artist does not use a limited canvas to contain the colours, which therefore subsist in a world of their own making.

The world of night and day of Sol Aris's other works are clearly visible here, but in a different form.

``The dialogue created by the comination of textures, colours, and dimensions evokes nature in its pure, controlled, yet fanciful expression. Sensorial expreiences and organic abstractions represent man's drive for interpreting reality and our mental processes. In a seemingly chaotic world, the artist struggles to find inner serenity and to convey it in his work. Each piece becomes a unique instance of wholeness within the labyringht of life.''
