Meaning & Analysis

This signed screen print, Composition With Circles 2, was released in 2001 in an edition of 30 and a series of four. The print presents circles of equal diameter overlapping at intervals across a rectangular frame. The circles jostle across the surface, cut in half along the edges, creating a kaleidoscopic pattern.

Imploring the viewer to consider how it physically feels to look, Riley’s geometric patterns create perceptual disruption. Enacted with mathematical characterisation, Composition With Circles 2 is exemplar of Riley’s in-depth experiments with form, composition and visual perception.

Bridget Riley, a leading figure in the British Op-Art movement, has captivated audiences with her abstract paintings and prints that challenge visual perception. Born in London, 1931, Riley’s artistic journey evolved from semi-Impressionist beginnings to geometric mastery, significantly influencing modern art. Her groundbreaking artworks, from Movement In Squares to the vibrant Stripes series, explore optical phenomena and colour dynamics, creating mesmerising, dizzying effects. With a prolific career spanning over seven decades, Riley’s innovative designs and perceptual disruptions continue to shape contemporary British art, solidifying her enduring influence in the realm of abstract and modern art.
