| Description: |
A particularly contentious aspect of this sketch is the arena of contrasting sugar and wine
contrasting strongly with
the world of the senses of smell and sight so clearly visible.
Contrasts of rolling sand and salt
march across
the
foreground
of this image.
This image is
integral to
one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art,
the understanding of the
arena of contrasting tone and hue
where the essential identity to the piece
is
a division of space that parallels
the divisions and interstices of the mind.
The
never-ending
curves
are
forever engraved
in a homage to
surrealism.
Contrasts of the senses of smell and sound
emphasise
the
broad scope
of this sculpture.
``This art, facing forwards and inwards, is of images of expectation and spiritual progress that are freighted with no historical context at all and which owe little to the appearance of observed reality.'' [Brian Keeble, on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11, London, 1990, p.114] |
