Untitled is a 2006 chalk by Paul Sietsema, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a dark green square with a jagged, uneven hole cut out of it. Inside that hole is a lighter green shape, and inside that shape is a white oval. The edges of the cut-outs look rough and frayed, almost like torn paper. The artist made this by cutting and pasting painted paper, then adding chalk. The layers create a simple but striking effect—just shapes and colors, no extra details. Next, look up Paul Sietsema to see more of his layered, cut-paper work.
Paul Sietsema (born 1968) is a Los Angeles–based American artist who works primarily in film, painting and drawing.
