Pretentious Yet Pointless
The work shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. This striking piece is representative of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the strangely contorted rapidly soaring elements where the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility to the image is the sensuality of intoxification. A temporally evolving glammerdummering, the essential identity of which remains unchanged, is sometimes in a different form by the understanding of the environment. The figured figure enriches a reflection of the process of creation. The ornamented canvas belies the sensuality of intoxification. Such forms, quietly formal, create a strong interaction of forces. It is important to understand that the major feature of neo-impressionism is that it encourages the viewer to define form in terms of area, rather than representational versimilitude. The embellished figure belies a division of space that parallels our innermost confusion. Sol Aris has not completed the colour pallette of this work. The here and now experience of size and perception of Sol Aris's other works are clearly visible here, but in a different form. A perpetually changing network, the relationship of the spectator of which remains unchanged, is sometimes irrefutably altered by the understanding of the viewer. Sol Aris has not described the price of this picture. A notable feature of this image is the here and now experience of form and space contrasting strongly with the dominant angularity and horizontality so clearly visible. An important part of the prototype is that it is the eternal or spiritual dimension and its endless possibilities. The sketch shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. This striking piece is an expression of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the creation of the arena of contrasting sugar and wine where the essential identity to the image is the eternal interplay of Yin and Yang.
The image shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
``Paradoxically, this work, which has such an assertive and fascinating physical presence, simultaneously undermines its physical reality by the way in which it reflects, and thus elides or blends with, its surroundings.''
