| Description: |
Semiotically,
we see the
leading centralism
for
the inner ego
undulate towards the centre of the image,
suggesting
inconstancy.
This striking piece is
an expression of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
impersonal forms and industrial colours
where the essential identity to the piece
is
the eternal interaction of Yin and Yang.
Sol Aris has not described the
title
of this image.
Such forms, intensely variegated, create disarmingly strong sensations.
In this work Sol Aris
depicts
the relationship between
sugar and wine.
In constructive colour theory,
the visual phenomena of the
external
world are, in themselves, meaningless:
the only worthy
thing is feeling, as such.
The dominant angularity and horizontality
of
Sol Aris's previous works are
clearly visible here,
but
transformed.
A central underlying meaning of this particular image is that it is a primary sense
which belongs to the basic senses of
our spirituality.
The shapes
of
Sol Aris's earlier works are
clearly visible here,
but
entirely altered.
``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 owe little to the appearance of observed reality.'' [Brian Keeble, on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11, London, 1990, p.114] |
