“Riley changes our way of looking. And she does this successfully with the aid of our sense of sight because what she asks us to do is by no means unnatural. The demands of her art are neither at war with our common perceptions of nature nor do they violate the physical characteristics of our perceptual faculties”
(R. Kudielka, ‘Bridget Riley’, in: Exh. Cat., Edinburgh, National Galleries of Scotland (and travelling), Bridget Riley, 2019, p. 128).
