Anoka Faruqee's virtuosic Op Art paintings exist in the lineages of Bridget Riley and Josef Albers. Her visually stunning and destabilizing works, painted in abstract circular waves, achieve a spectral and photographic quality, while remaining firmly anchored to the medium of painting. Faruqee's meticulous works induce a distinct and bodily experience, foregrounding the perceptual operations of the brain and forcing us to contemplate how we perceive and process visual information.
