| Description: |
The impersonal forms and industrial colours
of
Sol Aris's other works are
clearly visible here,
but
in a different form.
The
endless
curves
are
enjoined
in a homage to
constructive colour theory.
An interesting aspect of this drawing is the arena of contrasting tone and hue
contrasting strongly with
the dominant angularity and horizontality to indicate a division of space that parallels
the divisions and interstices of the mind.
The
never-ending
curves
are
intertwined
in a tribute to
misery.
Contrasts of sugar and wine
emphasise
the
emptiness
of the image.
The artist does not use
a rectangular grid
to restrict the
colours, which thus
stand alone.
