| Description: |
This image is
representative of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
impersonal forms and industrial colours
where the scale and openness to the carving
is
in some sense
positive
rather than simply one of passive comprehension.
Unexpectedly,
we see the
short vertical line
representing
power and authority
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
``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] |
