Meaning & Analysis
Untitled (Evoe), executed in 2003 in an edition of 75, is composed of Bridget Riley’s unique, serpentine forms, unrelated to any other conventional, geometric form, that evolved following the great success of the artist’s Stripes series. Like numerous other prints in this series, Untitled (Evoe) is composed of four colours, which work together to create a figure and ground construction.
Like the other works in this series, Untitled (Evoe) is structured on a diagonal grid. This underlying structure gives the composition a forward movement that is tempered by the soft lines of the curved forms. The basic building blocks for these curvilinear works are serpentine segments in solid blocks of colour, which are of varying size. The complex structure of the print makes it seem as if each colour in turn alternately becomes the figure and ground.
The suggested title of the artwork, Evoe, was a cry associated with the intoxicated rites of the Greek god of wine and fertility, Bacchus.
