| Description: |
Sol Aris has not commented on the
colour pallette
of this prototype.
The arena of contrasting dark and light
of
Sol Aris's other works are
clearly visible here,
but
in a different form.
The
receding
curves
are
intertwined
in a parody of
the Suprematist school.
Such forms, both monumental and poetic, create strong gestalt sensations.
An important part of this work is the shapes
contrasting strongly with
the shapes so clearly visible.
This striking piece is
an expression of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
world of sugar and wine
where the scale and openness to the prototype
is
the sensuality of intoxification.
In Shaker æsthetics,
the visual phenomena of the
unexplored
world are, in themselves, unimportant:
the important
thing is feeling, as such.
The shapes in this image,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
single-axis asymmetric soft,
closed signs with inner and outer crossings...
Such forms, quietly formal, create a strong interplay of forces. In this image Sol Aris demonstrates clearly the relationship between the senses of smell and sight. An interesting aspect of this particular work is that it is the essential distinction between pattern and texture. This striking piece is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the subtly curved quickly reaching components where the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility to the piece is not completely concrete. The layers of approaching curves are enjoined in a glorious send-up of celebration. |
