Untitled is a 2004 gouache by Carla Arocha, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is all dots. Bright yellow dots in neat rows, some stacked tight, others spaced out. The background is a pale, almost white paper. The dots don’t form anything you’d recognize—they’re just patterns, like a grid gone playful. The artist used colored ink and gouache, which is a thick, paint-like medium. The dots feel random but also precise, like someone carefully placed each one. Check out how Carla Arocha uses gouache in this work.
