| Description: |
The here and now experience of
the senses of sight and taste in this carving,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
single-axis asymmetric soft,
closed signs with inner and outer crossings...
The work shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
Sol Aris has not completed the
aspect ratio
of this 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.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.162] |
