| Description: |
The
adorned
canvas
belies
the essential difference between pattern and texture.
The arena of contrasting tone and hue
of
Sol Aris's previous works are
clearly visible here,
but
in a different form.
The artist employs
a rectangular grid
to shape the
colours, which in this way
stand alone.
The
endless
curves
are
intertwined
in a homage to
celebration.
It is useful to note that the
idea behind stereometric construction
is that it encourages Sol Aris
to define form in terms of
area,
rather than weight.
The here and now experience of
size and perception in this picture,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
slender lissome curves...
The image shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
