Untitled is a 1958 ink by Eva Hesse, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing looks like two tall, twisted figures standing side by side. Their shapes are jagged and uneven, almost like they’re made of sharp lines and rough edges. The background is empty except for some faint marks, and the whole thing is in just one shade of gray. The artist used a method called *etching*—they scratched into a metal plate, then pressed paper onto it to make the lines. The marks look hand-drawn and a little messy, like the artist was experimenting. If you like this style, check out etching to see how it works.
Eva Hesse (January 11, 1936 – May 29, 1970) was a German-born American sculptor known for her pioneering work in materials such as latex, fiberglass, and plastics.
