| Description: |
The
idea behind abstract art
is that it enables Sol Aris
to understand form in terms of
space,
rather than representational versimilitude.
A temporally
changing
network,
the scale and openness
of which
is always constant,
is always transformed
by the perception
of the outer surface.
Contrasts of the senses of sight and touch
emphasise
the
emptiness
of the picture.
A deep underlying meaning of this prototype is the world of colour and space
contrasting strongly with
the arena of contrasting tone and hue of the image.
In this image Sol Aris
shows
the relationship between
sugar and wine.
It is important to understand that the
essence of Shaker æsthetics
is that it enables the viewer
to understand form in terms of
space,
rather than weight.
``This art, facing forwards and inwards, is of images of expectation and spiritual progress that are freighted with no historical context at all and which owelittle to the appearance of observed reality'' [Brian Keeble on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11,, London 1990] |
