Untitled is a 2008 ink by Richard Dupont, depicting barefoot, held at Museum of Modern Art.
You see a black-and-white print of a twisted, almost melting human figure. The body looks stretched and warped, like it’s made of rubber. This print is part of a series where Dupont used 3D scans of his own body, then distorted them. The technique—etching with aquatint—gives the image a grainy, textured look, like old film. It’s not just a drawing; it’s a mix of technology and handwork. If you like how this feels, look up the technique: etching, drypoint, aquatint.
