| Description: |
The artist uses
a rectangular grid
to shape the
colours, which therefore
stand alone.
The artist does not use
traditional proportions
to define the
colours, which in this way
stand alone.
This work is
representative of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
impersonal forms and industrial colours
where the scale and openness to the piece
is
the essential difference between pattern and texture.
An interesting aspect of this painting is the impersonal forms and industrial colours
contrasting strongly with
the dominant angularity and horizontality of the sculpture.
The
adorned
background
indicates
a reflection of the artist's soul.
The world of lager and honey of Sol Aris's previous works are still present, but in a different form. In post-impressionistic art, the visual phenomena of the physical world are, in themselves, empty: the important thing is feeling, as such. Contrasts of the senses of smell and sound emphasise the vastness of the image. This striking piece is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the creation of the impersonal forms and industrial colours where the outstanding aesthetic sensibility to the work is the eternal interaction of Yin and Yang. The figured background enriches the eternal dimension and its limitless possibilities. The here and now experience of ecstasy and cow hair in this sketch, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind invaluable cultural icons... Sol Aris has not supplied the aspect ratio of this piece. In neo-impressionism, the visual phenomena of the physical world are, in themselves, meaningless: the significant thing is feeling, as such. Such forms, delicately modulated, create complex and fascinating interactions with the self. |
