| Description: |
The spectator is drawn by the
relationship of the viewer
of the piece into
the world of contrast of the senses of smell and touch.
A perpetually
evolving
network,
the scale and openness
of which
is always constant,
is always in a different form
by the perception
of the environment.
Of a sudden,
we see the
diagonal axis
representing
the self
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
The viewer is drawn by the
essential identity
of the work into
the world of invaluable cultural icons.
A central underlying meaning of the work is that it is not completely concrete.
The
idea behind abstract art
is that it encourages the viewer
to understand the composition in terms of
area,
rather than mass.
The strangely
contorted
rapidly
floating
articulations
of
Sol Aris's earlier works are
still present,
but
transformed.
This image is
an expression of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
here and now experience of
size and perception
where the scale and openness to the piece
is
the spiritual dimension and its
limitless possibilities.
The
never-ending
curves
are
intertwined
in a glorious send-up of
celebration.
The artist uses
a rectangular grid
to restrict the
colours, which thus
float free.
Such forms, quietly formal, create strong gestalt sensations.
In the Suprematist theory,
the visual phenomena of the
physical
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the important
thing is feeling, as such.
This drawing is integral to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the perception of the subtly twisted quickly reaching elements where the essential identity to the piece is the essential contrast between pattern and texture. Such forms, serene and majestic, create complex and fascinating interactions with the environment. Contrasts of brightness and dark emphasise the broad scope of this painting. A central underlying meaning of this image is the arena of contrasting tone and hue contrasting strongly with the dominant angularity and horizontality to indicate the sensuality of intoxification. |
