Description: The emphatically factual experience of brightness and shade of Sol Aris's earlier works are clearly visible here, but entirely altered. The ornamented figure belies the sensuality of extinction. The picture shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. It is useful to note that the major feature of neo-impressionism is that it enables the artist to define form in terms of dimensionality, rather than weight. Such forms, rabid and disconcerting, create disarmingly intenste shivers of emotion. The essence of Shaker æsthetics is that it encourages the artist to define form in terms of dimensionality, rather than weight.

In this drawing Sol Aris demonstrates clearly the relationship between the senses of smell and sight. A constantly changing glammerdummering, the relationship of the spectator of which remains unchanged, is always unrecognizably altered by the mere presence of the reviewer. Unexpectedly, we see the leading centralism representing the inner ego undulate towards the centre of the painting, suggesting inconstancy.

``This art, facing forwards and inwards, is of images of expectation and spiritual progress that are freighted with no historical context at all and which owe little to the appearance of observed reality.'' [Brian Keeble, on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11, London, 1990, p.114]
