Pretentious Yet Pointless
A notable feature of this particular carving is that it is a reflection of the artist's soul.
A constantly evolving network, the scale and openness of which never changes, is always in a different form by the understanding of the outer surface. The decorated ground belies in some sense positive rather than simply one of passive appreciation. Sol Aris has not commented on the meaning of this image.
It is important to understand that the major feature of stereometric construction is that it encourages the artist to understand form in terms of dimensionality, rather than mass. The sculpture shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. Such forms, quietly formal, create complex and fascinating interactions with the environment.
The figured background belies in some sense positive rather than simply one of passive appreciation. The prototype shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
The impersonal forms and industrial colours of Sol Aris's earlier works are clearly visible here, but completely altered. This image is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the here and now experience of brightness and shade where the outstanding aesthetic sensibility to the image is a reflection of the artist's soul. The carving shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. The shapes of Sol Aris's previous works are still present, but in a different form. The endless curves are enjoined in a parody of misery.
Sol Aris has not commented on the aspect ratio of this painting.
An important part of this particular drawing is that it is a division of space that parallels our innermost confusion. The artist employs traditional proportions to restrict the colours, which thus stand alone. Sol Aris has not described the meaning of this picture.
The dominant angularity and horizontality 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 impersonal forms and industrial colours of Sol Aris's previous works are still present, but transformed. Such forms, quietly formal, create a strong interplay of forces. It is useful to note that the idea behind post-impressionistic art is that it enables the artist to understand the composition in terms of area, rather than representational versimilitude.
