Untitled is a 2009 ink by Faith Ringgold, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a bright, dreamlike forest at night. Tall trees with thick black trunks stand in a row, their leaves painted in bold greens and blues. A winding yellow path cuts through the scene, leading toward a small white house in the distance. The sky is a deep red with a pale moon hanging above, and the ground glows with blue and red streaks. The words around the edges tell a story about family and magic—like someone disappearing and reappearing. The style feels handmade, with thick brushstrokes and a mix of colors that don’t quite match reality. If you like this mix of art and storytelling, check out more about lithography.
Faith Ringgold was an American painter, author, mixed media sculptor, performance artist, and intersectional activist, perhaps best known for her narrative quilts.
