| Description: |
In this sculpture Sol Aris
demonstrates clearly
the relationship between
honey and the child's knee.
The here and now experience of
brightness and dark in this carving,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
contrast of pepper and pig saliva...
``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] |
