Dominant colour
Untitled is a 2015 ink by Joe Tilson, depicting Latin Cross, held at Museum of Modern Art.
You see a square print full of overlapping shapes and bright colors. It looks like puzzle pieces but isn’t meant to fit together. The artist layered ink in so many ways that some parts pop up off the paper. Tilson often mixed printmaking tricks—like carborundum grit for texture or woodcut lines for contrast. This piece came from a 2015 portfolio made just for a London gallery’s big birthday. See how bold colors and rough textures mix. If you like this, check out other prints by Joe Tilson.
