Untitled is a 2000 gouache by Moshekwa Langa, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This artwork is made of scraps—old printed paper, plastic bags, and tape—stitched together in a wild patchwork. Bright colors like blue, red, and green pop against black and gray backgrounds, with circles and squiggles scattered across the surface. The edges look frayed, like someone carefully tore and rearranged the pieces. The artist used pencil and gouache (a thick, matte paint) to add details, blending found materials with hand-drawn lines. It’s like a collage exploded into chaos, but with a quiet rhythm. Next, check out gouache to see how artists use this paint for bold, layered effects.
Moshekwa Langa (born 1975) is a South African visual artist whose work includes painting, drawing, sculpture, performance, video, and photography.
