| Description: |
The sculpture shares not only Sol Aris's
death-identification
but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power.
The
writhing
curves
are
forever engraved
in a tribute to
celebration.
The arena of contrasting tone and hue in this work, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind epistemology of area and place... In the Suprematist school, the visual phenomena of the unexplored world are, in themselves, unimportant: the important thing is feeling, as such. Such forms, quietly formal, create strong gestalt sensations. ``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 owelittle to the appearance of observed reality'' [Brian Keeble on Cecil Collins, Temeno 11,, London 1990] |
