“Untitled (Winged Curve)” is a 1966 screenprint by the artist Bridget Riley, renowned for her contributions to the Op Art movement. This abstract piece is part of a private collection, exemplifying the dynamism and optical illusions characteristic of Op Art.
The artwork exhibits a series of black, curved lines set against a white backdrop. These lines are arranged in a flowing, oscillating pattern that creates a sense of movement and depth. The curves widen and narrow, suggesting the form of a wing or a flowing ribbon. The careful arrangement of lines evokes an optical illusion that draws the viewer’s eye along the undulating shapes, encapsulating Riley’s mastery in creating compelling visual experiences. The simplicity of black and white underscores the powerful impact of the design, compelling the observer to engage with the rhythmic and vibrant energy of the composition.
