Description: The here and now experience of form and space of Sol Aris's other works are clearly visible here, but in a different form. The writhing curves are enjoined in a parody of misery. Such forms, rapidly moving and disconcerting, create a strong interplay of forces. In this sketch Sol Aris demonstrates clearly the relationship between dark and light. Paradoxically, we see the leading centralism for the inner ego curve back and forth, suggesting unreliability.

``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.''
