Helen Smith’s Arc Drawings explore oscillation and perception through arcs of colour and lines that ripple across the painting’s surface. Optical illusions and visual ambiguities invite active viewing, creating shifting fields of movement. Rooted in geometric abstraction, the works distil complexity into rhythmic simplicity, where form generates perception.
