| Description: |
The artist does not use
a limited canvas
to define the
colours, which in this way
float free.
Contrasts of brightness and dark
march across
the
emptiness
of the drawing.
The emphatically factual experience of
form and space
of
Sol Aris's earlier works are
clearly visible here,
but
transformed.
``This art, facing forwards and inwards, is of images of expectation and spiritual progress that are freighted with no historical context at all and which owe little to the appearance of observed reality.'' [Brian Keeble, on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11, London, 1990, p.114] |
