Untitled is a 2016 ink by Christopher Wool, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows a face half-covered by a messy mix of black lines and scribbles. The lines overlap and twist, making it hard to tell where one shape ends and another begins. In the middle, big letters spell out "Gj$u·kN" in bold, uneven strokes. The artist used a simple tool—just pencil and ink—to create this chaotic effect. The face looks like it’s being pulled apart by the marks, almost like a sketch that got too wild. Check out lithography to see how artists print images this way.
