Sonnet, 2016 is an example of recent, monochromatic works in which Bridget Riley’s renowned ‘repetition and rhythm’ are displayed.

Interviewed by Richard Cork in 2018 Riley observed ‘Now that I’m older, I appreciate a lot more the structure of poetry and what it releases - turning over a feeling or thought and finding a different way of expressing it’.
