Loss 1964Poster con cornice

Loss 1964 is a Bridget Riley work from her Op Art years, when she made still surfaces seem to move. The picture is built from repeating bands that bend and tighten, so the eye keeps travelling and cannot settle on one spot. Black and grey hold the weight while thin white lines keep the whole thing breathing.

This framed poster has a clear frame edge that stops the pattern cleanly at the border. A black finish lets the dark bands run straight into it, while a wood finish warms the greys and separates them from the surrounding wall.

Hang it in the study, on the wall beside the desk. From the chair you catch the bands shifting as the lamp moves, and the pattern seems to tilt a little.
