Untitled is a 1966 watercolor by Chryssa (Vardea-Mavromichali), held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting looks like a mix of shapes and colors stuck together. There are bold black lines forming sharp angles and zigzags, some painted in white and blue. The background is mostly gray and brown, with a few textured patches that look like they might be scribbled or drawn freehand. One section has small, scattered marks that almost look like tiny footprints or splatters. The way the lines and colors clash makes it feel busy but controlled. The artist used different materials—paint, pencil, ink—all on the same paper, which adds to the rough, layered look.
