| Description: |
A constantly
evolving
glammerdummering,
the scale and openness
of which
is always the same,
is always in a different form
by the perception
of the viewer.
Such forms, serene and tranquil, create complex and fascinating interactions with the self.
This striking piece is
representative of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
world of dark and light
where the outstanding aesthetic sensibility to the piece
is
the spiritual dimension and its
endless possibilities.
The artist employs
traditional proportions
to shape the
colours, which therefore
float free.
An interesting aspect of the prototype is that it is an image of the process of creation.
The
layers of approaching
curves
are
closed
in a parody of
misery.
``Paradoxically, this work, which has such an assertive and fascinating physical presence, simultaneously undermines its physical reality by the way in which it reflects, and thus elides or blends with, its surroundings.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.262] |
