Featuring flowing, serpentine shapes in shades of green, lilac, and red, About Lilac's dynamic curves seem to break free from their underlying structure, creating a compelling contrast between figure and background.
"By using twisted curves, I could bunch up colour sensations in a way that went further than the lateral groupings. When colours are twisted along the rise and fall of a curve their juxtapositions change continually”.
This piece, along with the broader Lozenges series, marks an evolution from Riley’s earlier stripe works, offering a deeper exploration of color harmony and movement.
