Untitled 2019

Thomas Riesner's "Untitled" (2019) is a small-scale work on paper, created using black and white oil pastel. The piece depicts two figures, both rendered in a crude, childlike style, with oversized heads and simple limbs. The figure on the left, seemingly in a state of distress, is facing the viewer, while the figure on the right is lying down with its face obscured. The stark contrast between black and white, along with the simplistic imagery and the use of oil pastel, create a sense of unease and mystery, typical of Riesner's art.
