Untitled, 2018–2023
Marks on paper, wood
Set of ten
Acquired in 2024

Untitled is a series of marks on paper that trace the silhouettes of different bodies, as well as the voids left by others who appear to have vanished—making their absence more present, more poignant. The drawings are based on the lives of poets from Italy, Russia, Turkey, China, Azerbaijan, Nigeria, India, Pakistan, Myanmar, and South Korea, who have been imprisoned for what they have said or written. Each work is accompanied by verses of their poetry.
