| Description: |
This image is
representative of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
dominant angularity and horizontality
where the relationship of the spectator to the piece
is
the sensuality of intoxification.
``What does it all mean? I have little idea... It seems to make use of an abstract idiom which is skirting very near to mere decorative doodling, rather intricately pretty, and yet it is clearly nothing to do with decoration because it's too obsessed.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.232] |
