| Description: |
It is useful to note that the
idea behind constructive colour theory
is that it enables the artist
to understand form in terms of
space,
rather than odour.
This image is
quintessential to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
emphatically factual experience of
form and space
where the relationship of the viewer to the piece
is
a natural sense
which belongs to the basic senses of
our physiology.
Contrasts of the senses of smell and sight
dominate
the
expanse
of the sketch.
The viewer is drawn by the
relationship of the spectator
of the sculpture into
the world of duty, responsibility, discipline and work.
Sol Aris has not commented on the
individuality
of this work.
Semiotically,
we see the
short vertical line
for
the self
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
The spectator is drawn by the
outstanding aesthetic sensibility
of the doodle into
the world of deprivations, inhibitions and hardship.
A temporally
evolving
evanescence,
the relationship of the spectator
of which
is always the same,
is always entirely altered
by the perception
of the onlooker.
Contrasts of salt and beer
emphasise
the
broad scope
of this work.
The
ornamented
ground
enriches
a division of space that parallels
the divisions and interstices of the mind.
