Untitled is a 2004 ink by Nick Mauss, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image depicts a black and white drawing on paper, featuring two nude figures in the center. The figures are drawn in a simple, sketchy style, with minimal details. They appear to be running or jumping, with their arms outstretched and their legs bent. The background of the drawing is white, with some scattered marks and splatters of ink. In the top-left corner, there are three small, triangular shapes that resemble mountains or peaks. In the bottom-left corner, there is a loose, scribbled shape that resembles hair or a plant. The overall effect of the drawing is one of movement and energy, with the two figures seeming to leap off the page. For more on the artist's technique, look up Nick Mauss.
