Meaning & Analysis
Going Across, a 2001 screen print by Bridget Riley, was released in a signed edition of 90, and contributes to her Lozenges series. Going Across sees Riley push the series’ abstraction further by featuring just two colours and scaling up her pattern of curved forms.
Riley’s carefully planned structure in Going Across ensures that the figure/ground relationship between the colours remains ambiguous. The segmented colours overlap in such a way that it is possible to read both colours alternately as figure and ground. The shapes themselves recall the outlines of leaves or petals. Despite being non-representational, Riley has previously expressed her great love for nature and the influence this exerts over her artistic production. Hence, the artist’s forms suggest shapes and rhythms found in the natural world.
