| Description: |
An important part of this work is the impersonal forms and industrial colours
contrasting strongly with
the arena of contrasting salt and pepper so clearly visible.
A perpetually
evolving
evanescence,
the relationship of the spectator
of which
is always the same,
is always irrefutably altered
by the mere presence
of the reviewer.
An interesting aspect of the doodle is that it is in some sense
positive
rather than simply one of passive comprehension.
Contrasts of colour and space
emphasise
the
emptiness
of this carving.
The
adorned
background
enriches
the eternal or spiritual dimension and its
limitless possibilities.
In this image Sol Aris
demonstrates clearly
the relationship between
dark and light.
The artist uses
a rectangular grid
to define the
colours, which can by this means
float free.
The arena of contrasting tone and hue in this sculpture,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
single-axis asymmetric soft,
closed signs with inner and outer crossings...
The artist employs
traditional proportions
to shape the
colours, which in this way
float free.
``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] |
