| Description: |
An interesting side of this particular image is that it is the eternal contrast of Yin and Yang.
The arena of contrasting tone and hue in this sketch,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
images rich
in meaning and emotive power...
The
layers of approaching
curves
are
closed
in a tribute to
constructive colour theory.
The spectator is drawn by the
outstanding aesthetic sensibility
of the sketch into
the world of epistemology of space and
environment.
Contrasts of light and shade
emphasise
the
expanse
of this piece.
Such forms, both serene and poetic, create strong gestalt sensations. ``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] |
