| Description: |
Contrasts of dark and light
emphasise
the
expanse
of this image.
This striking piece is
quintessential to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the creation of the
impersonal forms and industrial colours
where the essential identity to the piece
is
the eternal dimension and its
limitless possibilities.
``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.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.262] |
