| Description: |
This drawing is
representative of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
strongly
curved
downward
flying
components
where the essential identity to the sketch
is
the pattern of unconscious thought.
The picture shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
In the Suprematist school,
the visual phenomena of the
external
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the important
thing is feeling, as such.
It is important to understand that the idea behind neo-impressionism is that it encourages the artist to understand the composition in terms of area, rather than weight. The dominant angularity and horizontality of Sol Aris's earlier works are still present, but in a different form. A notable feature of this piece is the strongly curved upward flying components contrasting strongly with the strongly distorted rapidly flying components of the work. Such forms, rabid and disconcerting, create complex and fascinating interactions with the environment. Contrasts of rolling sand and pepper march across the vastness of this picture. In abstract art, the visual phenomena of the manifest world are, in themselves, meaningless: the only worthy thing is feeling, as such. Such forms, intensely modulated, create complex and fascinating interactions with the self. The artist does not use traditional proportions to contain the colours, which therefore subsist in a world of their own making. The spectator is drawn by the outstanding aesthetic sensibility of the drawing into the world of images strong in insight and emotion. A particularly contentious aspect of the work is that it is a reflection of the artist's soul. The arena of contrasting tone and hue in this image, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind invaluable cultural relics... This image is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the perception of the emphatically factual experience of happiness and beer where the essential identity to the piece is in some sense active rather than simply one of passive appreciation. The subtly curved rapidly floating articulations in this sketch, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind invaluable cultural relics... It is useful to note that the idea behind abstract art is that it encourages Sol Aris to define form in terms of area, rather than representational versimilitude. Semiotically, we see the diagonal axis symbolising power and authority undulate towards the centre of the image, suggesting inconstancy. |
