Based in Berlin, Germany, American artist Julie Oppermann draws on her background in neuroscience to create juxtapositions of stripes and marks that disrupt the processes of visual perception.

Item description: A painting composed of vertical, wavy stripes colored in soft shades of pink, blue and green, overlaid with thin, black stripes that subtly break up the bright colors so they appear to vibrate.
