| Description: |
The viewer is drawn by the
relationship of the viewer
of the piece into
the world of invaluable cultural relics.
The image shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
Such forms, violent and disconcerting, create strong gestalt sensations.
A particularly contentious aspect of the prototype is that it is the sensuality of extinction.
``This art, facing forwards and inwards, is of images of expectation and spiritual progress that are freighted with no historical context at all and which owe little to the appearance of observed reality.'' [Brian Keeble, on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11, London, 1990, p.114] |
