Pretentious Yet Pointless
``The artist is more a facilitator than an authoritarian with his materials and thus expresses `sympathy with matter'.''

| Description: |
It is important to understand that the
idea behind stereometric construction
is that it enables the artist
to understand the composition in terms of
space,
rather than odour.
An important part of the carving is that it is the pattern of unconscious thought.
Sol Aris has not described the
price
of this image.
An interesting side of this image is the dominant angularity and horizontality
contrasting strongly with
the shapes so clearly visible.
This work is
quintessential to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
emphatically factual experience of
dark and light
where the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility to the piece
is
in some sense
active
rather than simply one of passive comprehension.
This image is
representative of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
dominant angularity and horizontality
where the relationship of the spectator to the piece
is
a primary sense
which belongs to the basic senses of
our psychology.
