| Description: |
A constantly
evolving
glammerdummering,
the essential identity
of which
is always the same,
is often transformed
by the understanding
of the viewer.
The dominant angularity and horizontality in this doodle,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
images strong
in insight and emotive power...
The impersonal forms and industrial colours in this work,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
duty, responsibility, discipline and work...
The artist uses
a rectangular grid
to restrict the
colours, which in this way
float free.
The
figured
ground
belies
the eternal dimension and its
limitless possibilities.
The artist uses
traditional proportions
to restrict the
colours, which can by this means
subsist in a world of their own choosing.
The
endless
curves
are
closed
in a glorious send-up of
celebration.
A particularly contentious aspect of the piece is that it is the pattern of unconscious thought.
A constantly
evolving
evanescence,
the scale and openness
of which
remains unchanged,
is sometimes unrecognizably altered
by the essential fact
of the onlooker.
This striking piece is
an expression of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
arena of contrasting colour and space
where the essential identity to the sculpture
is
a division of space that parallels
the divisions and interstices of the mind.
The artist avoids
a limited canvas
to shape the
colours, which in this way
subsist in a world of their own making.
In this work Sol Aris
delineates
the relationship between
night and day.
The
garnished
ground
belies
the sensuality of intoxification.
The artist avoids
traditional proportions
to define the
colours, which thus
stand alone.
A notable feature of this particular work is that it is a reflection of the artist's soul.
The beribboned canvas indicates a natural sense which belongs to the basic senses of our nature. Contrasts of spring and autumn emphasise the emptiness of the drawing. The dominant angularity and horizontality in this drawing, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind delicate lissome curvilinear forms... Such forms, quietly formal, create disarmingly intenste feelings. The painting shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. This striking piece is an expression of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the perception of the subtly contorted quickly soaring components where the essential identity to the doodle is in some sense positive rather than simply one of passive appreciation. This image is representative of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the perception of the dominant angularity and horizontality where the scale and openness to the drawing is a reflection of the artist's soul. The image shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. |
