Untitled is a 1998 ink by Sean Mellyn, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows a faucet dripping water onto a field of sunflowers with faces. The flowers are drawn in loose, sketchy lines, and some have surprised or sad expressions. The faucet is simple, with a metal handle and spout, and the whole scene is in black, white, and gray. The water from the faucet looks like it’s "feeding" the flowers, turning them into something almost alive. The faces in the petals give them a mix of emotions, like they’re reacting to the water. If you like this mix of everyday objects and strange details, look up lithography next.
