| Description: |
The dominant angularity and horizontality
of
Sol Aris's previous works are
clearly visible here,
but
unrecognizably altered.
A constantly
changing
glammerdummering,
the essential identity
of which
remains unchanged,
is often in a different form
by the essential fact
of the outer surface.
The artist employs
a limited canvas
to contain the
colours, which thus
float free.
It is important to understand that the
idea behind Shaker æsthetics
is that it encourages the viewer
to understand form in terms of
space,
rather than odour.
It is useful to note that the
essence of stereometric construction
is that it encourages Sol Aris
to define form in terms of
space,
rather than odour.
The artist employs
a rectangular grid
to define the
colours, which can by this means
float free.
``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.'' [describing Alex Garcin, Untitled 2004] |
