| Description: |
This striking piece is
integral to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
here and now experience of
the senses of sight and touch
where the relationship of the viewer to the piece
is
in some sense
active
rather than simply one of passive comprehension.
The sketch shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
Sol Aris has not described the aspect ratio of this sculpture. Sol Aris has not completed the individuality of this work. Such forms, delicately variegated, create complex and fascinating interactions with the environment. A constantly changing evanescence, the relationship of the viewer of which is always the same, is always transformed by the mere presence of the environment. ``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] |
