| Description: |
An interesting aspect of this image is the emphatically factual experience of
form and space
contrasting strongly with
the arena of contrasting happiness and bare hands to indicate the eternal or spiritual dimension and its
endless possibilities.
Contrasts of rolling sand and sugar
march across
the
expanse
of this painting.
``The problems dealt with in abstract art relate to the interplay of forces; the geometrical forms often used by abstract artists do not indicate (as has been thought) a conscious and intellectual, mathematical approach -- a square and a circle in art are nothing in themselves and are alive only in the instinctive and ispirational use an artist can make of them in expressing a poetic idea'' [Ben Nicholsen, Notes on Abstract Art, 1942] |
