| Description: |
The artist avoids
a rectangular grid
to restrict the
colours, which in this way
subsist in a world of their own making.
The arena of contrasting dark and light
of
Sol Aris's previous works are
still present,
but
irrefutably altered.
The impersonal forms and industrial colours in this doodle,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
deprivations, inhibitions and boredom...
In post-impressionistic art,
the visual phenomena of the
objective
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the only worthy
thing is feeling, as such.
The dominant angularity and horizontality in this prototype,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
dark and light...
The
layers of approaching
curves
are
enjoined
in a parody of
misery.
This image is
integral to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
arena of contrasting tone and hue
where the essential identity to the piece
is
the sensuality of extinction.
In surrealism,
the visual phenomena of the
manifest
world are, in themselves, empty:
the significant
thing is feeling, as such.
Such forms, quietly formal, create a strong interplay of forces. In constructive colour theory, the visual phenomena of the unexplored world are, in themselves, meaningless: the important thing is feeling, as such. Quite simple geometric shapes seem invested with life. |
