| Description: |
This image is
representative of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
strangely
curved
quickly
soaring
articulations
where the scale and openness to the doodle
is
in some sense
positive
rather than simply one of passive comprehension.
The viewer is drawn by the
outstanding aesthetic sensibility
of the painting into
the world of single-axis asymmetric soft,
closed signs with inner and outer crossings.
