Description: The image shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. It is important to understand that the major feature of surrealism is that it encourages the artist to define form in terms of area, rather than weight.

``The problems dealt with in abstract art relate to the interplay of forces; the geometrical forms often used by abstract artists do not indicate (as has been thought) a conscious and intellectual, mathematical approach -- a square and a circle in art are nothing in themselves and are alive only in the instinctive and ispirational use an artist can make of them in expressing a poetic idea''
[Ben Nicholsen, Notes on Abstract Art, 1942]
