Untitled is a 1954 ink by Hodaka Yoshida, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This piece looks like a mix of shapes and colors stuck to a light background. There are black, gray, and blue patches scattered around, some with rough edges. A small orange dot sits near the center. The shapes don’t line up neatly—they feel loose and uneven. The artist used a woodcut technique, which means they carved into wood and printed the shapes. The title is just *Untitled*, so it’s all about the visuals. Next, check out woodcut to see how this printing method works.
Hodaka Yoshida was a Japanese modernist artist who worked first in oils, and then from 1950 in the woodblock print medium. From the beginning of his career, he broadened the range of styles and techniques used by Yoshida family artists.
