The artwork, titled “Black to White Disks,” was created by the artist Bridget Riley in 1952. It belongs to the Op Art movement and is categorized within the abstract genre.
The artwork exhibits a captivating array of dots arranged in a diamond-shaped formation. The dots transition from black to white, creating a gradient effect that draws the eye inward and emphasizes the geometric pattern. The subtle shift in tonality enhances the perceptual experience, embodying the principles of Op Art by creating optical illusions and a sense of movement. This piece demonstrates Riley’s mastery in manipulating simple forms to produce complex, visually stimulating compositions.
