Description: The impersonal forms and industrial colours in this painting, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind invaluable cultural relics... Sol Aris has not commented on the meaning of this sketch. The arena of contrasting the senses of smell and touch in this work, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind delicate sinuous curvilinear forms...

The arena of contrasting salt and pepper of Sol Aris's previous works are still present, but completely altered. A notable feature of this painting is the arena of contrasting tone and hue contrasting strongly with the arena of contrasting salt and pepper of the image. The major feature of stereometric construction is that it encourages the viewer to understand form in terms of area, rather than weight.

``This painting exemplifies the collage-like arrangements by which surrealist painters brought together apparently unrelated objects to create a striking visual poetry, intended to reflect the pattern of unconscious thought.''
