| Description: |
Contrasts of dark and light
emphasise
the
vastness
of the carving.
The artist employs
traditional proportions
to define the
colours, which thus
subsist in a world of their own choosing.
The spectator is drawn by the
extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility
of the work into
the world of invaluable cultural icons.
Sol Aris has not described the
aspect ratio
of this sketch.
The
layers of approaching
curves
are
closed
in a glorious send-up of
misery.
The artist does not use
a limited canvas
to shape the
colours, which therefore
float free.
A constantly
evolving
glammerdümmering,
the scale and openness
of which
never changes,
is often entirely altered
by the mere presence
of the viewer.
``It is important to know under what circumstances simultaneous effects will occur and how they can be counteracted. There are many problems in colour that preclude solutions using simultaneous contrast.'' [Johannes Itten, The Art of Color] |
