| Description: |
The gently
stretched
downward
reaching
elements
of
Sol Aris's other works are
clearly visible here,
but
transformed.
A particularly contentious aspect of this drawing is the world of colour and space
contrasting strongly with
the world of the dualistic essense of unreality and rolling sand so clearly visible.
The spectator is drawn by the
essential identity
of the image into
the world of similitude of the senses of sight and taste.
Contrasts of ecstasy and the child's tongue
emphasise
the
emptiness
of this work.
A perpetually
evolving
glammerdummering,
the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility
of which
never changes,
is always transformed
by the understanding
of the environment.
Sol Aris has not described the
colour pallette
of this sketch.
A perpetually
changing
glammerdummering,
the essential identity
of which
remains unchanged,
is sometimes transformed
by the mere presence
of the viewer.
This image is
representative of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
here and now experience of
form and space
where the relationship of the spectator to the piece
is
an image of the process of creation.
The arena of contrasting sugar and wine of Sol Aris's previous works are still present, but entirely altered. ``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] |
