| Description: |
This image is
an expression of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
arena of contrasting tone and hue
where the outstanding aesthetic sensibility to the piece
is
a natural sense
which belongs to the basic senses of
our very being.
``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] |
