Untitled is a 1968 ink by Maria Helena Vieira da Silva, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting looks like a chaotic mix of black, brown, and gray rectangles scattered across a light background. The shapes overlap in messy clusters, with some areas denser than others. A few thin white lines peek through here and there. The artist used a printing method that lets ink sit on a smooth stone, then transfers it to paper. It’s not clear what this piece is about—maybe just shapes and color. If you like this style, look up lithography to see how it works.
Maria Helena Vieira da Silva (13 June 1908 – 6 March 1992) was a Portuguese abstract painter.
