Untitled is a 1998 by Kiki Smith, depicting moon, held at Museum of Modern Art.
You see a long, accordion-folded sheet of paper printed with faint gray lines—like a map of veins or rivers. Smith made this by pressing a photograph of real veins onto metal, then printing it. The folds turn the flat image into something you can hold and unfold, making the body feel both fragile and vast. It’s quiet but unsettling, like seeing your own pulse under skin. To see how other artists use the body in unexpected ways, look up Kiki Smith.
