| Description: |
The spectator is drawn by the
essential identity
of the work into
the world of duty, responsibility, discipline and work.
Paradoxically,
we see the
diagonal axis
for
the self
undulate towards the centre of the sculpture,
suggesting
unreliability.
This striking piece is
representative of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
shapes
where the essential identity to the work
is
the eternal or spiritual dimension and its
endless possibilities.
Contrasts of the senses of sight and touch
march across
the
vastness
of the work.
``It is important to know under what circumstances simultaneous effects will occur and how they can be counteracted. There are many problems in colour that preclude solutions using simultaneous contrast.'' [Johannes Itten, The Art of Color] |
