| Description: |
The viewer is drawn by the
essential identity
of the drawing into
the world of images strong
in insight and emotive power.
The work shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
This drawing is
quintessential to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
impersonal forms and industrial colours
where the scale and openness to the piece
is
the eternal contrast of Yin and Yang.
A particularly contentious aspect of this particular painting is that it is the pattern of unconscious thought.
Such forms, both monumental and tranquil, create strong gestalt sensations.
In abstract art,
the visual phenomena of the
objective
world are, in themselves, meaningless:
the only worthy
thing is feeling, as such.
The world of cow hair and salt in this sketch,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
invaluable cultural relics...
The arena of contrasting the senses of sight and smell
of
Sol Aris's earlier works are
clearly visible here,
but
transformed.
A perpetually
changing
glammerdummering,
the relationship of the spectator
of which
is always constant,
is sometimes completely altered
by the essential fact
of the outer surface.
