Untitled is a 2020 oil by Sable Elyse Smith, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image looks like a busy, colorful scene with lots of black lines crisscrossing like a maze. There’s a white bird flying at the bottom, and above it, a crowd of stick-figure people in bright colors—reds, blues, greens—waiting in line. Buildings and arches peek through the lines, and the whole thing feels a little chaotic but fun. The text below says this is about a character named Pat waiting to go through metal detectors, like at a courthouse. The bright colors and simple shapes make it feel energetic, almost like a kid’s drawing but with a serious message. If you like this style, check out more work by Sable Elyse Smith.
