Pretentious Yet Pointless
A perpetually evolving network, the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility of which is always the same, is always in a different form by the essential fact of the viewer. A particularly contentious aspect of this particular drawing is that it is a division of space that parallels our innermost confusion.
It is important to understand that the essence of surrealism is that it encourages Sol Aris to understand form in terms of space, rather than weight.
Of a sudden, we see the diagonal axis for power and authority curve back and forth, suggesting unreliability. In this doodle Sol Aris delineates the relationship between light and dark. The layers of approaching curves are enjoined in a tribute to misery. Contrasts of dark and light dominate the expanse of the work. It is useful to note that the idea behind neo-impressionism is that it enables the artist to define the composition in terms of space, rather than representational versimilitude.
``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 owelittle to the appearance of observed reality''
[Brian Keeble on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11,, London 1990]
