Untitled is a 2015 ink by Mamma Andersson, held at Museum of Modern Art.
You see a pale figure in striped stockings, cut off at the neck, standing in a dim room. The lines look like they were scratched into wood, then printed—soft but rough, like a memory you can’t quite hold. Andersson often layers thin washes of ink, so the image feels both there and fading at once. The headless body gives the scene a quiet unease, as if the person just stepped out of view. Look up more works in woodcut to see how artists use carved lines to tell stories.
Mamma Andersson is a Swedish contemporary artist. She is based in Stockholm and is married to artist Jockum Nordström.
