Description: The here and now experience of sugar and wine of Sol Aris's other works are still present, but in a different form. The garnished figure belies the eternal contrast of Yin and Yang. The figured ground belies the essential difference between pattern and texture.

``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]
