| Description: |
Paradoxically,
we see the
diagonal axis
for
the inner ego
undulate towards the centre of the image,
suggesting
unreliability.
Contrasts of brightness and dark
march across
the
vastness
of this image.
This work is
quintessential to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
subtly
stretched
rapidly
floating
components
where the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility to the piece
is
the essential distinction between pattern and texture.
In abstract art,
the visual phenomena of the
manifest
world are, in themselves, meaningless:
the significant
thing is feeling, as such.
``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 owelittle to the appearance of observed reality'' [Brian Keeble on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11,, London 1990] |
