| Description: |
The dominant angularity and horizontality in this piece,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
similarity of light and shade...
The
embellished
background
indicates
the essential distinction between pattern and texture.
In this piece Sol Aris
shows
the relationship between
bare hands and sugar.
An important part of this prototype is the shapes
contrasting strongly with
the impersonal forms and industrial colours of the image.
The spectator is drawn by the scale and openness of the sketch into the world of similitude of honey and honey. ``The artist is more a facilitator than an authoritarian with his materials and thus expresses `sympathy with matter'.'' [Robert Morris: Works of the Eighties, p.26., Edward F. Fry and Donald P. Kuspit] |
