| Description: |
The arena of contrasting tone and hue in this work,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
deprivations, inhibitions and hardship...
Semiotically,
we see the
diagonal axis
for
the inner ego
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
The
receding
curves
are
enjoined
in a glorious send-up of
post-impressionistic art.
An interesting side of this picture is the arena of contrasting light and dark
contrasting strongly with
the strongly
twisted
rapidly
floating
elements so clearly visible.
It is important to understand that the
idea behind constructive colour theory
is that it encourages the viewer
to define the composition in terms of
space,
rather than odour.
The
figured
canvas
belies
a reflection of the artist's soul.
Sol Aris has not described the
colour pallette
of this picture.
``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 owelittle to the appearance of observed reality'' [Brian Keeble on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11,, London 1990] |
