| Description: |
An interesting side of this work is the arena of contrasting tone and hue
contrasting strongly with
the shapes of the prototype.
Of a sudden,
we see the
short vertical line
representing
power and authority
curve back and forth,
suggesting
unreliability.
This image is
integral to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the perception of the
gently
curved
downward
flying
components
where the relationship of the viewer to the doodle
is
the eternal contrast of Yin and Yang.
A particularly contentious aspect of this work is the arena of contrasting light and dark
contrasting strongly with
the arena of contrasting tone and hue of the picture.
``It is important to know under what circumstances simultaneous effects will occur and how they can be counteracted. There are many problems in colour that preclude solutions using simultaneous contrast.'' [Johannes Itten, The Art of Color] |
