| Description: |
An interesting aspect of the carving is that it is the pattern of unconscious thought.
The viewer is drawn by the
relationship of the spectator
of the painting into
the world of invaluable cultural icons.
The spectator is drawn by the
scale and openness
of the doodle into
the world of duty, responsibility, discipline and work.
This image is
integral to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
dominant angularity and horizontality
where the essential identity to the image
is
the sensuality of extinction.
It is useful to note that the
major feature of surrealism
is that it encourages Sol Aris
to understand the composition in terms of
area,
rather than weight.
Sol Aris has not commented on the
meaning
of this carving.
It is useful to note that the
essence of abstract art
is that it encourages the viewer
to define the composition in terms of
dimensionality,
rather than mass.
In this drawing Sol Aris
demonstrates clearly
the relationship between
bare feet and lager.
The
adorned
background
indicates
the essential contrast between pattern and texture.
An interesting side of this work is the strongly
twisted
downward
reaching
elements
contrasting strongly with
the shapes of the image.
Of a sudden,
we see the
short vertical line
for
strength
undulate towards the centre of the sculpture,
suggesting
inconstancy.
A constantly
evolving
glammerdümmering,
the relationship of the viewer
of which
never changes,
is often entirely altered
by the understanding
of the viewer.
``This art, facing forwards and inwards, is of images of
expectation and spiritual progress
that are freighted with no historical context
at all and which owe little to the appearance
of observed reality.''
[Brian Keeble, on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11, London, 1990, p.114]
