Meaning & Analysis
Echo is a signed screen print by Bridget Riley, released in 1998 in an edition of 75. The print is composed of interlocking planes of colour, whose elegant, serpentine lines evoke a sense of disembodied movement. Executed in three colours, as well as black and white, the colour palette of Echo is similar to that of Start. Yet, here, the inclusion of black darkens the print, simultaneously heightening the vibrancy of the adjacent colours. Consequently, Riley is able to engage in an in-depth analysis into colour and its potentialities.
Throughout her career, now spanning more than six decades, Riley has unfalteringly revelled in exploring the visual and emotional effects of various colour combinations, and Echo is no exception. Regarding colour as capable of eliciting emotional responses in the viewer, Riley often painted comparable compositions in similar colour palettes, varying just one colour.
