Untitled
2009
ink
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 2009 ink by Rosa Loy, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows two simple figures in a dark, shadowy space. One person sits hunched on the left, their face pale and blurred. The other stands on the right, arms relaxed, looking toward a window with bars. The background is mostly black, with a faint glow around the sitting figure’s head and a wavy line on the floor. The artist used only black and white, with a few pale yellow areas for contrast. The lines are rough and uneven, like they were drawn quickly or by hand.
