Description: This image is an expression of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the subtly stretched downward reaching components where the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility to the work is in some sense active rather than simply one of passive appreciation.

``The problems dealt with in abstract art relate to the interplay of forces; the geometrical forms often used by abstract artists do not indicate (as has been thought) a conscious and intellectual, mathematical approach -- a square and a circle in art are nothing in themselves and are alive only in the instinctive and ispirational use an artist can make of them in expressing a poetic idea''
[Ben Nicholsen, Notes on Abstract Art, 1942]
