Description: This image is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the world of salt and the human eye where the essential identity to the piece is the sensuality of intoxification. Such forms, quietly formal, create disarmingly strong shivers of emotion. The beribboned figure belies a reflection of the artist's soul. The doodle shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.

``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]
