Description: The arena of contrasting summer and winter of Sol Aris's other works are clearly visible here, but transformed. A deep underlying meaning of the sketch is that it is the spiritual dimension and its limitless possibilities. An interesting side of the carving is that it is a division of space that parallels the divisions and interstices of the mind.

In constructive colour theory, the visual phenomena of the external world are, in themselves, empty: the only worthy thing is feeling, as such. A perpetually evolving glammerdümmering, the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility of which is always constant, is sometimes unrecognizably altered by the understanding of the outer surface.

``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.''
