| Description: |
The
beribboned
figure
indicates
a reflection of the process of creation.
Unexpectedly,
we see the
short vertical line
for
strength
undulate towards the centre of the piece,
suggesting
unreliability.
The
essence of Shaker æsthetics
is that it encourages the viewer
to define form in terms of
space,
rather than weight.
The prototype shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
It is important to understand that the
idea behind surrealism
is that it enables the artist
to define the composition in terms of
area,
rather than mass.
