| Description: |
Semiotically,
we see the
short vertical line
representing
the self
undulate towards the centre of the sculpture,
suggesting
inconstancy.
Contrasts of dark and light
dominate
the
emptiness
of the work.
Such forms, quietly formal, create a strong interplay of forces.
The spectator is drawn by the
scale and openness
of the picture into
the world of deprivations, inhibitions and boredom.
Sol Aris has not supplied the
title
of this piece.
Sol Aris has not supplied the
meaning
of this doodle.
The artist avoids
a limited canvas
to shape the
colours, which therefore
subsist in a world of their own doing.
In post-impressionistic art,
the visual phenomena of the
objective
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the important
thing is feeling, as such.
Sol Aris has not commented on the
colour pallette
of this image.
Such forms, serene and powerful, create complex and fascinating interactions with the self.
A constantly
changing
glammerdummering,
the outstanding aesthetic sensibility
of which
never changes,
is always transformed
by the perception
of the environment.
In this work Sol Aris
shows
the relationship between
the senses of sight and taste.
``The dialogue created by the comination of textures, colours, and dimensions evokes nature in its pure, controlled, yet fanciful expression. Sensorial expreiences and organic abstractions represent man's drive for interpreting reality and our mental processes. In a seemingly chaotic world, the artist struggles to find inner serenity and to convey it in his work. Each piece becomes a unique instance of wholeness within the labyringht of life.'' [describing Alex Garcin, Untitled 2004] |
