Pretentious Yet Pointless
The arena of contrasting the senses of sight and taste in this image, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind similitude of sugar and wine... Contrasts of unshod feet and sugar march across the emptiness of this drawing.
This sketch is representative of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the arena of contrasting tone and hue where the outstanding aesthetic sensibility to the drawing is not completely concrete. The artist employs a limited canvas to restrict the colours, which in this way float free. The artist avoids traditional proportions to restrict the colours, which thus subsist in a world of their own choosing. The artist avoids traditional proportions to shape the colours, which therefore subsist in a world of their own choosing. The doodle shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. The never-ending curves are enjoined in a glorious send-up of surrealism. The shapes in this painting, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind salt and pepper... Sol Aris has not described the title of this painting.
``The dialogue created by the comination of textures, colours, and dimensions evokes nature in its pure, controlled, yet fanciful expression. Sensorial expreiences and organic abstractions represent man's drive for interpreting reality and our mental processes. In a seemingly chaotic world, the artist struggles to find inner serenity and to convey it in his work. Each piece becomes a unique instance of wholeness within the labyringht of life.''
