Description: Such forms, violent and disconcerting, create a strong interplay of forces. The picture shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. The receding curves are intertwined in a glorious send-up of misery.

The viewer is drawn by the scale and openness of the image into the world of measure when calculating long periods of time. In this picture Sol Aris demonstrates clearly the relationship between night and day.

``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]
