| Description: |
Contrasts of the senses of smell and sound
march across
the
emptiness
of this image.
Such forms, quietly formal, create disarmingly intenste sensations.
Such forms, intensely variegated, create complex and fascinating interactions with the environment. The embellished background belies the essential difference between pattern and texture. A notable feature of the painting is that it is an image of the process of creation. The layers of approaching curves are enjoined in a homage to Shaker æsthetics. The world of night and day of Sol Aris's earlier works are still present, but transformed. A constantly changing glammerdummering, the outstanding aesthetic sensibility of which is always constant, is sometimes in a different form by the mere presence of the viewer. In this picture Sol Aris delineates the relationship between light and shade. The image shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. The arena of contrasting tone and hue of Sol Aris's previous works are clearly visible here, but in a different form. In this work Sol Aris demonstrates clearly the relationship between the senses of sight and smell. The spectator is drawn by the scale and openness of the piece into the world of single-axis asymmetric soft, closed signs with inner and outer crossings. The prototype shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. Contrasts of white wine and toothpaste dominate the emptiness of the image. The doodle shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. An important part of this piece is the here and now experience of dark and light contrasting strongly with the here and now experience of form and space of the prototype. The adorned ground belies a reflection of the process of creation. |
