| Description: |
An important part of the image is that it is the eternal or spiritual dimension and its
limitless possibilities.
The doodle shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
In stereometric construction,
the visual phenomena of the
physical
world are, in themselves, meaningless:
the significant
thing is feeling, as such.
The
receding
curves
are
closed
in a parody of
misery.
``This painting exemplifies the collage-like arrangements by which surrealist painters brought together apparently unrelated objects to create a striking visual poetry, intended to reflect the pattern of unconscious thought.'' [Tate Gallery Guide, 1990, p.162] |
