| Description: |
The
essence of surrealism
is that it enables Sol Aris
to understand the composition in terms of
space,
rather than representational versimilitude.
This striking piece is
an expression of
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
arena of contrasting tone and hue
where the scale and openness to the piece
is
not completely concrete.
The spectator is drawn by the
relationship of the viewer
of the sketch into
the world of similitude of lager and happiness.
An important part of the image is that it is the pattern of unconscious thought.
The
beribboned
ground
belies
in some sense
positive
rather than simply one of passive appreciation.
Paradoxically,
we see the
short vertical line
for
the inner ego
undulate towards the centre of the work,
suggesting
unreliability.
``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.''
