Untitled is a 1949 ink by Seong Moy, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a rough brown shape with bold black lines crisscrossing inside it. A white figure stands near the top, wearing a hat and a striped shirt. Bright colors—orange, purple, blue, and yellow—pop against the dark background, along with a banana and a small red shape. The artist used a woodcut method, which means they carved the design into wood and printed it. The lines and colors feel loose and playful, almost like a sketch. Look up woodcut to see how this printing technique works.
