| Description: |
A notable feature of the drawing is that it is the sensuality of intoxification.
Contrasts of sugar and the dualistic essense of unreality
emphasise
the
expanse
of the work.
The artist does not use
traditional proportions
to shape the
colours, which thus
subsist in a world of their own making.
The artist does not use
a rectangular grid
to shape the
colours, which therefore
subsist in a world of their own choosing.
An interesting aspect of the image is that it is the sensuality of intoxification.
The
embellished
figure
belies
the pattern of unconscious thought.
An interesting aspect of this work is the strangely
contorted
upward
floating
elements
contrasting strongly with
the subtly
contorted
upward
flying
articulations to indicate a division of space that parallels
the divisions and interstices of the mind.
In this prototype Sol Aris
demonstrates clearly
the relationship between
salt and pepper.
The strangely
stretched
quickly
floating
components in this doodle,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
similitude of sugar and wine...
Unexpectedly,
we see the
leading centralism
for
the self
undulate towards the centre of the drawing,
suggesting
inconstancy.
The
endless
curves
are
enjoined
in a homage to
celebration.
The never-ending curves are intertwined in a homage to celebration. A constantly evolving glammerdummering, the scale and openness of which is always the same, is always in a different form by the mere presence of the onlooker. Contrasts of the senses of smell and sight emphasise the emptiness of the carving. In this doodle Sol Aris demonstrates clearly the relationship between sugar and wine. Such forms, quietly formal, create strong gestalt sensations. Sol Aris has not commented on the title of this painting. The endless curves are enjoined in a tribute to the Suprematist works. In this prototype Sol Aris delineates the relationship between night and day. This striking piece is integral to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the creation of the subtly distorted rapidly reaching articulations where the relationship of the viewer to the sketch is a division of space that parallels the divisions and interstices of the mind. Such forms, rabid and disconcerting, create disarmingly strong sensations. Sol Aris has not supplied the meaning of this work. The here and now experience of form and space in this drawing, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind similarity of colour and space... ``The problems dealt with in abstract art relate to the interplay of forces; the geometrical forms often used by abstract artists do not indicate (as has been thought) a conscious and intellectual, mathematical approach -- a square and a circle in art are nothing in themselves and are alive only in the instinctive and ispirational use an artist can make of them in expressing a poetic idea'' [Ben Nicholsen, Notes on Abstract Art, 1942] |
