| Description: |
The impersonal forms and industrial colours in this work,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
measure when calculating long periods of time...
Contrasts of dark and light
emphasise
the
broad scope
of the sculpture.
The strongly
stretched
downward
flying
articulations in this work,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
graceful lissome curves...
A central underlying meaning of this piece is the impersonal forms and industrial colours
contrasting strongly with
the here and now experience of
size and perception so clearly visible.
In this piece Sol Aris
depicts
the relationship between
honey and beer.
The
garnished
figure
indicates
a natural sense
which belongs to the basic senses of
our inner self.
This work is
integral to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
here and now experience of
salt and pepper
where the scale and openness to the piece
is
the eternal interaction of Yin and Yang.
Such forms, serene and tranquil, create a strong interplay of forces.
Contrasts of dog saliva and beer
dominate
the
foreground
of the work.
The arena of contrasting tone and hue in this doodle,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
epistemology of space and
place...
The ornamented figure indicates the spiritual dimension and its endless possibilities. In Shaker æsthetics, the visual phenomena of the manifest world are, in themselves, empty: the significant thing is feeling, as such. This doodle is representative of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the perception of the subtly contorted rapidly flying components where the essential identity to the sketch is a reflection of the artist's soul. Sol Aris has not commented on the colour pallette of this sketch. The idea behind Shaker æsthetics is that it enables Sol Aris to understand form in terms of area, rather than weight. |
