| Description: |
Of a sudden,
we see the
diagonal axis
representing
the inner ego
curve back and forth,
suggesting
unreliability.
This image is
an expression of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
shapes
where the outstanding aesthetic sensibility to the piece
is
in some sense
active
rather than simply one of passive appreciation.
``This painting exemplifies the collage-like arrangements by which surrealist painters brought together apparently unrelated objects to create a striking visual poetry, intended to reflect the pattern of unconscious thought.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.162] |
