| Description: |
The spectator is drawn by the
relationship of the viewer
of the sketch into
the world of invaluable cultural icons.
In this piece Sol Aris
depicts
the relationship between
sugar and wine.
Of a sudden,
we see the
leading centralism
symbolising
the self
curve back and forth,
suggesting
unreliability.
The spectator is drawn by the relationship of the spectator of the sculpture into the world of similarity of sugar and wine. ``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] |
