Pretentious Yet Pointless
The arena of contrasting salt and pepper in this image, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind measure when calculating long periods of time... This striking piece is an expression of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the perception of the arena of contrasting colour and space where the relationship of the viewer to the painting is the eternal dimension and its endless possibilities.
The artist employs a limited canvas to contain the colours, which thus subsist in a world of their own making.
The impersonal forms and industrial colours in this sketch, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind invaluable cultural relics... The writhing curves are forever engraved in a parody of surrealism. In this carving Sol Aris depicts the relationship between salt and pepper. The receding curves are forever engraved in a tribute to misery. The garnished canvas indicates a reflection of the artist's soul. A deep underlying meaning of the prototype is that it is not completely concrete. Unexpectedly, we see the short vertical line symbolising the self undulate towards the centre of the work, suggesting unreliability.
