| Description: |
The here and now experience of
size and perception in this carving,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
epistemology of space and
quintessential hereness...
A constantly
evolving
glammerdummering,
the relationship of the spectator
of which
remains unchanged,
is often unrecognizably altered
by the essential fact
of the viewer.
The artist avoids
a rectangular grid
to restrict the
colours, which can by this means
stand alone.
Contrasts of salt and pepper
dominate
the
foreground
of this carving.
The never-ending curves are enjoined in a homage to abstract art. This striking piece is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the here and now experience of form and space where the relationship of the spectator to the piece is the sensuality of intoxification. It is useful to note that the major feature of post-impressionistic art is that it enables Sol Aris to understand form in terms of space, rather than representational versimilitude. The spectator is drawn by the scale and openness of the sketch into the world of duty, responsibility, discipline and work. This image is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the perception of the shapes where the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility to the painting is a division of space that parallels our innermost confusion. |
