| Description: |
The viewer is drawn by the
scale and openness
of the piece into
the world of duty, responsibility, discipline and work.
The artist uses
a limited canvas
to define the
colours, which therefore
stand alone.
This drawing is
quintessential to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
dominant angularity and horizontality
where the relationship of the viewer to the piece
is
a division of space that parallels
our innermost confusion.
A constantly
evolving
glammerdümmering,
the relationship of the viewer
of which
is always constant,
is always transformed
by the understanding
of the outer surface.
``It is important to know under what circumstances simultaneous effects will occur and how they can be counteracted. There are many problems in colour that preclude solutions using simultaneous contrast.'' [Johannes Itten, The Art of Color] |
