Description: This image is an expression of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the perception of the dominant angularity and horizontality where the scale and openness to the prototype is the essential distinction between pattern and texture.

``Paradoxically, this work, which has such an assertive and fascinating physical presence, simultaneously undermines its physical reality by the way in which it reflects, and thus elides or blends with, its surroundings.''
