Untitled 1966

This untitled print was made by Gego, using a monochrome palette to create abstract forms with an almost architectural quality. The piece feels like a dance between order and chaos, doesn't it? Look closely at the marks. You can see the pressure of the hand, the slight wobble in the lines, revealing the artist’s process. The texture is created through these repeated, rhythmic marks, a kind of meditative act. The black ink is bold and confident. The lines give the impression of depth, suggesting volume without fully committing to illusion. The lower part of the print, with its dense, vertical marks, is so suggestive of landscape forms, almost like the edge of a forest. It reminds me of Eva Hesse, whose sculptures played with similar themes of repetition and organic form. Ultimately, this print celebrates the beauty of ambiguity, inviting us to find our own way through its intricate landscape.
