Description: A particularly contentious aspect of this particular carving is that it is the spiritual dimension and its limitless possibilities. In this work Sol Aris shows the relationship between night and day. Semiotically, we see the leading centralism for the inner ego undulate towards the centre of the painting, suggesting inconstancy. The receding curves are closed in a parody of celebration.

Of a sudden, we see the diagonal axis for the inner ego curve back and forth, suggesting inconstancy. The spectator is drawn by the scale and openness of the image into the world of single-axis asymmetric soft, closed signs with inner and outer crossings.

``What does it all mean? I have little idea... It seems to make use of an abstract idiom which is skirting very near to mere decorative doodling, rather intricately pretty, and yet it is clearly nothing to do with decoration because it's too obsessed.''
[Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.232]
