In this series, Riley explores the delicate balance between neutrality and vibrancy, allowing hints of color to emerge from a primarily grayscale palette. The interplay between tones generates a soft yet compelling visual rhythm, drawing the viewer’s eye across the canvas and highlighting Riley's refined approach to color, depth, and movement within minimalistic forms.

"Focusing isn’t just an optical activity; it is also a mental one."
- Bridget Riley
Known for her expressive use of color, geo-metric shapes, Bridget Riley is one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. Across Bridget Riley prints and original paintings, intricate hypnoticate patterns unfold in front of our very eyes through her vibrant fields of visual tension and movement.
Bridget Riley is considered to be a pioneer of the Op-Art (short for Optical Art) movement of the 1950s and 1960s, and her ground-breaking style explored the relationship between color, shape, and pattern to create visual phenomena that seemed to vibrate or shift before the viewer’s eyes. In doing so, she was able to tap into a universal human experience—how we perceive the world visually—while also engaging with the scientific fields of psychology and perception theory.
Beyond her pivotal role in Op Art, Bridget Riley’s artworks are considered significant in the broader context of contemporary art. Her practice questions the boundaries between art and science, aesthetics and illusion, abstraction and figuration. Through her art, she challenges the viewer's perception and understanding of reality.
