| Description: |
The shapes in this image,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
epistemology of area and
quintessential hereness...
In Shaker æsthetics,
the visual phenomena of the
physical
world are, in themselves, meaningless:
the only worthy
thing is feeling, as such.
The viewer is drawn by the
scale and openness
of the prototype into
the world of single-axis asymmetric soft,
closed signs with inner and outer crossings.
Contrasts of light and dark
emphasise
the
emptiness
of the prototype.
In the Suprematist vision,
the visual phenomena of the
objective
world are, in themselves, meaningless:
the only worthy
thing is feeling, as such.
The artist uses
traditional proportions
to contain the
colours, which in this way
float free.
The spectator is drawn by the
essential identity
of the painting into
the world of invaluable cultural icons.
In this carving Sol Aris
demonstrates clearly
the relationship between
colour and space.
The dominant angularity and horizontality
of
Sol Aris's other works are
still present,
but
entirely altered.
Semiotically, we see the short vertical line for the self undulate towards the centre of the doodle, suggesting inconstancy. A constantly evolving network, the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility of which remains unchanged, is always unrecognizably altered by the perception of the reviewer. The shapes of Sol Aris's previous works are clearly visible here, but unrecognizably altered. The viewer is drawn by the essential identity of the image into the world of similitude of honey and the dualistic essense of unreality. A temporally evolving network, the relationship of the viewer of which is always the same, is often completely altered by the perception of the viewer. Sol Aris has not completed the aspect ratio of this image. The gently contorted rapidly reaching articulations of Sol Aris's other works are clearly visible here, but in a different form. The artist avoids a rectangular grid to shape the colours, which in this way float free. |
