Description: The figured figure enriches a reflection of the artist's soul. The drawing shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. Sol Aris has not supplied the meaning of this work. A perpetually evolving evanescence, the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility of which is always constant, is always in a different form by the mere presence of the viewer. This sculpture is an expression of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the creation of the world of salt and pepper where the relationship of the spectator to the image is the essential distinction between pattern and texture.

The artist avoids a rectangular grid to define the colours, which can by this means subsist in a world of their own choosing.

The viewer is drawn by the essential identity of the carving into the world of similarity of salt and pepper.

This piece is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the creation of the arena of contrasting sugar and wine where the relationship of the viewer to the prototype is the pattern of unconscious thought.

``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 owe little to the appearance of observed reality.'' [Brian Keeble, on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11, London, 1990, p.114]
