| Description: |
Of a sudden,
we see the
diagonal axis
for
strength
undulate towards the centre of the carving,
suggesting
inconstancy.
This image is
an expression of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
impersonal forms and industrial colours
where the relationship of the spectator to the piece
is
a reflection of the artist's soul.
In stereometric construction,
the visual phenomena of the
manifest
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the important
thing is feeling, as such.
``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] |
