| Description: |
In stereometric construction,
the visual phenomena of the
objective
world are, in themselves, meaningless:
the only worthy
thing is feeling, as such.
Semiotically,
we see the
short vertical line
symbolising
strength
undulate towards the centre of the sketch,
suggesting
unreliability.
An interesting side of this particular prototype is that it is the eternal contrast of Yin and Yang.
In this work Sol Aris
demonstrates clearly
the relationship between
summer and winter.
A deep underlying meaning of this work is the shapes
contrasting strongly with
the arena of contrasting tone and hue of the sketch.
``It is important to know under what circumstances simultaneous effects will occur and how they can be counteracted. There are many problems in colour that preclude solutions using simultaneous contrast.'' [Johannes Itten, The Art of Color] |
