| Description: |
It is useful to note that the
essence of stereometric construction
is that it enables the artist
to understand form in terms of
area,
rather than mass.
The artist does not use
a rectangular grid
to define the
colours, which in this way
float free.
It is important to understand that the
idea behind stereometric construction
is that it encourages Sol Aris
to define the composition in terms of
area,
rather than mass.
Contrasts of dark and light
emphasise
the
broad scope
of the image.
``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] |
