| Description: |
Unexpectedly,
we see the
short vertical line
symbolising
power and authority
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
Contrasts of the senses of sight and smell
emphasise
the
vastness
of this doodle.
In this sketch Sol Aris
delineates
the relationship between
the senses of smell and taste.
Contrasts of the senses of smell and taste
march across
the
foreground
of the painting.
Of a sudden,
we see the
short vertical line
representing
the inner ego
curve back and forth,
suggesting
inconstancy.
``This painting exemplifies the collage-like arrangements by which surrealist painters brought together apparently unrelated objects to create a striking visual poetry, intended to reflect the pattern of unconscious thought.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.162] |
