About this artwork
In ‘Overtone’, Rietta delves into the complexities of form without the use of colour, marking her only grayscale piece. This artwork mirrors the concept of an overtone in music, where subtle frequencies enhance the main pitch, adding richness and complexity. Initially conceived in light pastels, she chose to strip the piece to its essence, exploring the interaction and tension created by its asymmetrical layout. The layering of geometric elements…
evokes a sense of floating; invites us to ponder the depth within its monochromatic simplicity.

Allison Rietta, a painter and visual artist with a robust background in design and fine art, deftly employs watercolour, acrylic, collage, pencil crayon, and ink. Her geometric abstract style oscillates between soft, fluid watercolours and precise, hard-edged forms, often guided by an intuitive, colour-driven process that begins with circles or rings. Rietta's artworks exude a meditative energy, inviting viewers into a vibrant conversation about vibration, nature, and the tension between harmony and dissonance.
