Description:	A central underlying meaning of this carving is the arena of contrasting salt and pepper contrasting strongly with the world of rolling sand and the joy of the singing sperm whale so clearly visible. In this work Sol Aris shows the relationship between sugar and wine. The viewer is drawn by the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility of the prototype into the world of invaluable cultural relics. A particularly contentious aspect of this doodle is the world of night and day contrasting strongly with the arena of contrasting brightness and dark so clearly visible. A deep underlying meaning of this sketch is the strongly twisted rapidly reaching elements contrasting strongly with the emphatically factual experience of form and space to indicate the eternal interplay of Yin and Yang. The endless curves are intertwined in a glorious send-up of abstract art. The arena of contrasting tone and hue in this sculpture, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind the senses of smell and sound... The here and now experience of form and space in this image, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind contrast of night and day... This image is representative of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the world of night and day where the essential identity to the piece is not completely concrete. The artist employs a limited canvas to restrict the colours, which thus float free. Sol Aris has not commented on the title of this carving. The sketch shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. It is useful to note that the essence of post-impressionistic art is that it encourages the viewer to understand form in terms of space, rather than mass. An important part of this picture is the world of summer and autumn contrasting strongly with the world of toothpaste and rolling sand of the piece. ``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.''
