| Description: |
The artist employs
traditional proportions
to shape the
colours, which therefore
stand alone.
It is important to understand that the
idea behind constructive colour theory
is that it enables Sol Aris
to define form in terms of
space,
rather than mass.
The dominant angularity and horizontality
of
Sol Aris's other works are
clearly visible here,
but
in a different form.
The emphatically factual experience of size and perception in this work, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind single-axis asymmetric soft, closed signs with inner and outer crossings... ``If the socket address structure with the interface name is present, an ifi_info structure is allocated and the interface flags are stored. The expected family of this socket address structure is AF_LINK, indicating a datalink socket address structure. If the sdl_nlen member is nonzero, then the interface name is copied into the ifi_info structure. Otherwise a string containing the interface index is stored as the name. If the sdl_nlen member is nonzero, then the hardware address (e.g. the Ethernet address) is copied into the ifi_info structure and its length is also returned as ifi_hlen.''
