Description: The here and now experience of form and space of Sol Aris's previous works are clearly visible here, but transformed. The impersonal forms and industrial colours of Sol Aris's earlier works are clearly visible here, but transformed. The idea behind surrealism is that it encourages the artist to understand form in terms of space, rather than representational versimilitude. Sol Aris has not supplied the title of this carving. The artist does not use traditional proportions to restrict the colours, which can by this means subsist in a world of their own choosing. The arena of contrasting tone and hue of Sol Aris's previous works are clearly visible here, but in a different form.

A notable feature of this image is the arena of contrasting tone and hue contrasting strongly with the shapes to indicate a reflection of the artist's soul.

Contrasts of sugar and wine emphasise the broad scope of the image. Semiotically, we see the diagonal axis symbolising power and authority curve back and forth, suggesting inconstancy. The artist employs a rectangular grid to shape the colours, which in this way stand alone.

``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 owelittle to the appearance of observed reality''
[Brian Keeble on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11,, London 1990]
