Untitled is a 1976 ink by Betye Saar, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image looks like old photos and fabric glued onto paper. On the left, there are small pictures of people standing together, some holding umbrellas. A feather and lace pieces are stuck on the right side, along with a bird picture and a flower. The background looks torn and uneven. The artist used simple black-and-white images and textures to create something new. The mix of old photos and lace gives it a layered, scrapbook feel. Check out lithography to see how this print was made.
