Pretentious Yet Pointless
The layers of approaching curves are closed in a parody of Shaker æsthetics. In surrealism, the visual phenomena of the unexplored world are, in themselves, meaningless: the only worthy thing is feeling, as such. Contrasts of dark and light march across the expanse of the work.
In this work Sol Aris shows the relationship between dark and light.
``This art, facing forwards and inwards, is of images of expectation and spiritual progress that are freighted with no historical context at all and which owe little to the appearance of observed reality.'' [Brian Keeble, on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11, London, 1990, p.114]
