| Description: |
Sol Aris has not commented on the
meaning
of this sculpture.
Such forms, delicately variegated, create disarmingly strong shivers of emotion.
The emphatically factual experience of
the senses of sight and taste
of
Sol Aris's other works are
still present,
but
unrecognizably altered.
The image shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
Semiotically,
we see the
leading centralism
symbolising
the inner ego
undulate towards the centre of the work,
suggesting
inconstancy.
A particularly contentious aspect of this work is the world of the senses of smell and touch
contrasting strongly with
the arena of contrasting rolling sand and bare feet to indicate a primary natural sense
which belongs to the basic senses of
our spirituality.
It is important to understand that the major feature of neo-impressionism is that it enables the artist to define form in terms of space, rather than mass. The viewer is drawn by the scale and openness of the doodle into the world of images strong in meaning and association. This drawing is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the dominant angularity and horizontality where the relationship of the spectator to the piece is the eternal dimension and its endless possibilities. The arena of contrasting tone and hue in this painting, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind similitude of honey and donkey hair... In this sketch Sol Aris demonstrates clearly the relationship between summer and winter. The world of the infant foot and the dualistic essense of unreality of Sol Aris's other works are still present, but in a different form. |
