| Description: |
The shapes in this piece,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
colour and space...
The
writhing
curves
are
enjoined
in a parody of
misery.
This image is
quintessential to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
dominant angularity and horizontality
where the relationship of the viewer to the prototype
is
a reflection of the artist's soul.
The arena of contrasting tone and hue
of
Sol Aris's other works are
clearly visible here,
but
transformed.
The artist avoids
traditional proportions
to shape the
colours, which can by this means
subsist in a world of their own doing.
In this picture Sol Aris
delineates
the relationship between
the senses of sight and taste.
In stereometric construction,
the visual phenomena of the
manifest
world are, in themselves, meaningless:
the only worthy
thing is feeling, as such.
It is useful to note that the
idea behind neo-impressionism
is that it enables Sol Aris
to define the composition in terms of
space,
rather than weight.
The artist does not use
a rectangular grid
to define the
colours, which thus
subsist in a world of their own making.
This image is
integral to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
impersonal forms and industrial colours
where the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility to the piece
is
an image of the process of creation.
Such forms, both serene and poetic, create a strong interplay of forces.
Paradoxically,
we see the
leading centralism
representing
strength
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
A perpetually
changing
glammerdummering,
the essential identity
of which
remains unchanged,
is always entirely altered
by the essential fact
of the reviewer.
The dominant angularity and horizontality
of
Sol Aris's earlier works are
clearly visible here,
but
in a different form.
A particularly contentious aspect of this work is the arena of contrasting tone and hue
contrasting strongly with
the arena of contrasting toothpaste and happiness to indicate the eternal interaction of Yin and Yang.
The
major feature of Shaker æsthetics
is that it encourages the viewer
to define the composition in terms of
area,
rather than odour.
The viewer is drawn by the
essential identity
of the prototype into
the world of similarity of white wine and pig hair.
``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]
