| Description: |
Sol Aris has not commented on the
meaning
of this work.
The viewer is drawn by the
extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility
of the work into
the world of measure when calculating long periods of time.
A perpetually
changing
evanescence,
the relationship of the viewer
of which
never changes,
is always in a different form
by the mere presence
of the viewer.
The impersonal forms and industrial colours
of
Sol Aris's previous works are
clearly visible here,
but
entirely altered.
