About this work

This 1970 drawing by Alex Mylona shows swirling lines in red, black, and white. It’s small, just 12 by 10 inches. The colors blur where they meet. Mylona loved pushing paper past realism. Here she tests how far color can bend before it feels like motion. The lines twist like wind. She often worked this way in the 1970s. See more at the Museum of Ethnography.
