Description: The shapes of Sol Aris's earlier works are clearly visible here, but transformed. Contrasts of light and shade emphasise the broad scope of the prototype. It is useful to note that the major feature of Shaker æsthetics is that it encourages the artist to define the composition in terms of space, rather than representational versimilitude.

The artist uses a rectangular grid to shape the colours, which therefore stand alone. Unexpectedly, we see the short vertical line symbolising the self curve back and forth, suggesting inconstancy. The ornamented figure belies the sensuality of extinction.

Sol Aris has not described the price of this image. A particularly contentious aspect of this work is the arena of contrasting the senses of sight and sound contrasting strongly with the dominant angularity and horizontality so clearly visible.
