Field Notes:

Stripes waves and diagonals are tuned so that motion arises from small differences in spacing and color

Defining Moment:

The early black and white works where alternating bands make the flat canvas behave like a vibrating structural screen

Bridget Riley

(

1931–

)

Riley built a world where line becomes vibration — optical rhythms shifting as the eye moves.

Her paintings turn perception into kinetic structure.

Structural Focus

Perception as Interface

The work activates through viewing conditions rather than fixed form. Movement, position, distance, or duration alters what is perceived. Vision becomes an interface rather than a passive act.

In Bridget Riley’s work, this approach appears where repetition activates optical difference, making vision itself the site of structure.

Position

Perception as Interface

The work activates through viewing conditions rather than fixed form. Movement, position, distance, or duration alters what is perceived. Vision becomes an interface rather than a passive act.

In Bridget Riley’s work, this approach appears where repetition activates optical difference, making vision itself the site of structure.

Chromatic Fields

Color fields operate as spatial and structural organizers.

Systems of Clarity

Order and coherence arise through disciplined systems and constraints.

Gesture functions as structure through disciplined, repeatable action.

Proportion organizes coherence through measured intervals, scale, and relation.

Form operates as a site for material, perceptual, and conceptual inquiry.

Striped Color Field

Repeated bands structure surface through rhythm and interval.
