About this work

This painting shows a tall, narrow shape made of smooth black and white rings. The rings get wider toward the top and bottom, like waves or ripples. The background is plain white, so the black-and-white shape stands out clearly. The lines create a sense of movement even though nothing is actually moving. The rings seem to push outward, almost like a spiral or a tunnel. If you like this kind of abstract art, check out Bridget Riley.
