Untitled is a 2009 ink by Martha Wilson, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image shows two side-by-side digital portraits of the same person’s face. The left one is smooth, with soft features and a neutral expression. The right one looks altered—one side of the face is flattened, giving it an uneven, almost distorted look. The titles under each portrait say *"I Make Up the Image of My Perfection"* and *"I Make Up the Image of My Deformity."* This suggests the artist is playing with how we edit or change our own appearance. Look up lithography next to see how artists print images in a different way.
Martha Wilson is an American feminist performance artist and the founding director of Franklin Furnace Archive art organization.
