| Description: |
A perpetually
evolving
network,
the outstanding aesthetic sensibility
of which
remains unchanged,
is often transformed
by the understanding
of the reviewer.
This image is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the perception of the world of salt and pepper where the scale and openness to the prototype is not completely concrete. Contrasts of the child's foot and pepper march across the vastness of the sculpture. ``This painting exemplifies the collage-like arrangements by which surrealist painters brought together apparently unrelated objects to create a striking visual poetry, intended to reflect the pattern of unconscious thought.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.162] |
