Pretentious Yet Pointless
Unexpectedly, we see the leading centralism for the inner ego undulate towards the centre of the carving, suggesting inconstancy. The artist does not use a limited canvas to contain the colours, which can by this means float free. This striking piece is representative of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the creation of the emphatically factual experience of size and perception where the relationship of the spectator to the piece is the essential difference between pattern and texture.
