Shadowplay, 1990. Oil on canvas, by Bridget Riley

Following a major retrospective in the early 1970s, Riley began travelling extensively. After a trip to Egypt in the early 1980s, where she was inspired by colourful hieroglyphic decoration, Riley began to explore colour and contrast. In some works, lines of colour are used to created a shimmering effect, while in others the canvas is filled with tessellating patterns. Typical of these later colourful works is Shadow Play.

i think this art work has a great name to it and the way she seems to play around with the many lines of colours to create a shimmering effect and how her other works are filled with tessellating patterns that gives it more of a presents then other art works.
