| Description: |
It is useful to note that the
essence of surrealism
is that it enables the artist
to understand form in terms of
area,
rather than weight.
A central underlying meaning of this piece is the strongly
distorted
upward
reaching
articulations
contrasting strongly with
the world of the senses of smell and sight to indicate an image of the process of creation.
A constantly
changing
evanescence,
the essential identity
of which
remains unchanged,
is often transformed
by the mere presence
of the environment.
``This art, facing forwards and inwards, is of images of expectation and spiritual progress that are freighted with no historical context at all and which owe little to the appearance of observed reality.'' [Brian Keeble, on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11, London, 1990, p.114] |
