Pretentious Yet Pointless

| Description: |
Contrasts of pig saliva and bare hands
emphasise
the
foreground
of this painting.
In this sketch Sol Aris
delineates
the relationship between
the senses of sight and touch.
Contrasts of the human foot and sugar
march across
the
expanse
of this work.
This image is
integral to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
shapes
where the scale and openness to the work
is
the eternal or spiritual dimension and its
endless possibilities.
A constantly
evolving
glammerdümmering,
the relationship of the spectator
of which
remains unchanged,
is often unrecognizably altered
by the essential fact
of the environment.
Such forms, violent and disconcerting, create disarmingly strong sensations.
This striking piece is
quintessential to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
shapes
where the scale and openness to the piece
is
the spiritual dimension and its
limitless possibilities.
In post-impressionistic art,
the visual phenomena of the
manifest
world are, in themselves, empty:
the important
thing is feeling, as such.
The
embellished
ground
belies
the sensuality of extinction.
