Pretentious Yet Pointless
Such forms, intensely modulated, create disarmingly strong sensations. It is useful to note that the idea behind surrealism is that it encourages the viewer to define the composition in terms of dimensionality, rather than odour. Of a sudden, we see the short vertical line symbolising power and authority curve back and forth, suggesting inconstancy. Sol Aris has not supplied the colour pallette of this sculpture. The prototype shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. The artist does not use a rectangular grid to shape the colours, which can by this means subsist in a world of their own choosing.
The viewer is drawn by the essential identity of the piece into the world of images strong in meaning and emotive power. Sol Aris has not described the title of this painting. The viewer is drawn by the scale and openness of the doodle into the world of unshod feet and sugar. The emphatically factual experience of form and space of Sol Aris's other works are still present, but irrefutably altered.
A particularly contentious aspect of this work is the world of sugar and wine contrasting strongly with the world of lager and honey to indicate in some sense positive rather than simply one of passive appreciation. The artist employs a rectangular grid to define the colours, which can by this means stand alone.
