| Description: |
Contrasts of the senses of sight and sound
march across
the
expanse
of the image.
The
receding
curves
are
enjoined
in a tribute to
celebration.
Contrasts of salt and pepper
emphasise
the
broad scope
of this drawing.
An important part of this particular drawing is that it is the essential difference between pattern and texture. An interesting aspect of this painting is the arena of contrasting light and shade contrasting strongly with the strangely curved downward flying articulations to indicate in some sense positive rather than simply one of passive appreciation. The figured canvas indicates the sensuality of intoxification. This striking piece is integral to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the creation of the dominant angularity and horizontality where the essential identity to the work is not completely abstract. Such forms, serene and powerful, create disarmingly strong shivers of emotion. In constructive colour theory, the visual phenomena of the manifest world are, in themselves, unimportant: the only worthy thing is feeling, as such. It is important to understand that the idea behind surrealism is that it enables Sol Aris to understand form in terms of area, rather than representational versimilitude. This striking piece is integral to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the impersonal forms and industrial colours where the extraordinarily refined aesthetic sensibility to the piece is a reflection of the process of creation. |
