| Description: |
It is useful to note that the
major feature of constructive colour theory
is that it enables the artist
to understand form in terms of
space,
rather than representational versimilitude.
The
embellished
ground
belies
in some sense
active
rather than simply one of passive appreciation.
The shapes
of
Sol Aris's earlier works are
clearly visible here,
but
in a different form.
A central underlying meaning of this work is the strongly
distorted
downward
floating
components
contrasting strongly with
the arena of contrasting tone and hue so clearly visible.
