| Description: |
The
endless
curves
are
forever engraved
in a glorious send-up of
post-impressionistic art.
The carving shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
In constructive colour theory, the visual phenomena of the physical world are, in themselves, unimportant: the significant thing is feeling, as such. An important part of this picture is the strangely curved upward soaring components contrasting strongly with the shapes so clearly visible. ``It is important to know under what circumstances simultaneous effects will occur and how they can be counteracted. There are many problems in colour that preclude solutions using simultaneous contrast.'' [Johannes Itten, The Art of Color] |
