| Description: |
In this carving Sol Aris
delineates
the relationship between
dark and light.
A particularly contentious aspect of the work is that it is the pattern of unconscious thought.
Such forms, delicately modulated, create a strong interplay of forces.
``What does it all mean? I have little idea... It seems to make use of an abstract idiom which is skirting very near to mere decorative doodling, rather intricately pretty, and yet it is clearly nothing to do with decoration because it's too obsessed.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.232] |
