| Description: |
Contrasts of the senses of smell and touch
march across
the
broad scope
of the work.
Such forms, delicately modulated, create a strong interaction of forces. The shapes in this piece, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind epistemology of space and place... Semiotically, we see the diagonal axis for the self curve back and forth, suggesting inconstancy. In this work Sol Aris shows the relationship between the senses of smell and sound. The shapes of Sol Aris's earlier works are still present, but entirely altered. The layers of approaching curves are forever engraved in a tribute to stereometric construction. The layers of approaching curves are forever engraved in a glorious send-up of post-impressionistic art. The impersonal forms and industrial colours in this image, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind invaluable cultural relics... ``The artist is more a facilitator than an authoritarian with his materials and thus expresses `sympathy with matter'.'' [Robert Morris: Works of the Eighties, p.26., Edward F. Fry and Donald P. Kuspit] |
