This painting presents a visually dynamic and complex geometric abstraction related to Op Art and hard-edge abstraction. Bright reds, oranges, purples, greens, and neon’s dominate, creating high visual tension and energy. The repetition of circles within squares and rectangles creates rhythmic movement. Through layered patterns and contrasting directions of lines, Somsak evokes a kinetic quality, making the flat surface feel animated.
‘Music for the Eyes 2025#12’ explores themes of visual overload, pattern recognition, and spatial ambiguity, pushing the viewer into an active perceptual experience. It reminds of works by artists like Bridget Riley, yet updated with a more maximalist, digital-age palette.
Overall, this is a bold and immersive composition that celebrates structure while simultaneously breaking it down.
