| Description: |
This work 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
a division of space that parallels
our innermost confusion.
The dominant angularity and horizontality in this doodle,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
single-axis asymmetric soft,
closed signs with inner and outer crossings...
The artist uses
a limited canvas
to shape the
colours, which in this way
float free.
``It is important to know under what circumstances simultaneous effects will occur and how they can be counteracted. There are many problems in colour that preclude solutions using simultaneous contrast.'' [Johannes Itten, The Art of Color] |
