| Description: |
The
never-ending
curves
are
enjoined
in a tribute to
celebration.
The drawing shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.

In post-impressionistic art,
the visual phenomena of the
objective
world are, in themselves, meaningless:
the significant
thing is feeling, as such.

Such forms, both serene and tranquil, create strong gestalt sensations.
This image is
representative of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
emphatically factual experience of
form and space
where the scale and openness to the piece
is
a natural sense
which belongs to the basic senses of
our nature.
In abstract art, the visual phenomena of the manifest world are, in themselves, meaningless: the significant thing is feeling, as such. It is important to understand that the major feature of constructive colour theory is that it enables the artist to define form in terms of dimensionality, rather than representational versimilitude. ``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.''
