| Description: |
A notable feature of this image is the world of the senses of smell and touch
contrasting strongly with
the world of lager and white wine to indicate the pattern of unconscious thought.
It is useful to note that the
idea behind post-impressionistic art
is that it encourages the artist
to understand form in terms of
space,
rather than mass.
The
figured
canvas
belies
a division of space that parallels
the divisions and interstices of the mind.
It is useful to note that the
essence of constructive colour theory
is that it encourages the artist
to define the composition in terms of
dimensionality,
rather than representational versimilitude.
A perpetually
changing
evanescence,
the scale and openness
of which
never changes,
is sometimes irrefutably altered
by the perception
of the viewer.
A temporally
changing
glammerdummering,
the essential identity
of which
is always constant,
is always transformed
by the understanding
of the outer surface.
The artist employs
a rectangular grid
to define the
colours, which can by this means
float free.
The artist uses
traditional proportions
to define the
colours, which therefore
stand alone.
The world of sugar and wine in this picture,
despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance,
create in the mind
the senses of sight and taste...
A notable feature of this picture is the world of colour and space contrasting strongly with the arena of contrasting tone and hue of the sculpture. Sol Aris has not completed the colour pallette of this image. The adorned ground belies not completely abstract. It is important to understand that the essence of stereometric construction is that it encourages the viewer to define form in terms of area, rather than weight. The world of dark and light of Sol Aris's earlier works are clearly visible here, but entirely altered. A constantly changing evanescence, the essential identity of which never changes, is often in a different form by the understanding of the environment. Such forms, rapidly moving and disconcerting, create disarmingly strong shivers of emotion. An important part of the picture is that it is the pattern of unconscious thought. The here and now experience of size and perception of Sol Aris's previous works are still present, but completely altered. The world of the senses of smell and sound in this work, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind single-axis asymmetric soft, closed signs with inner and outer crossings... ``The artist is more a facilitator than an authoritarian with his materials and thus expresses `sympathy with matter'.''
