Contemporary, dated 2021

A striking group of three unframed figural prints on paper, each rendered in a restrained black-on-white palette and characterized by the artist?s highly gestural, abbreviated mode of description. The compositions depict attenuated standing figures reduced to loose, expressive silhouettes, the forms built through sweeping brush-like passages and velvety dark tonal accents that lend the subjects an immediacy and haunting presence. The spareness of the imagery, together with the generous surrounding field of paper, gives the works a distinctly modern sensibility, balancing bold graphic impact with an elegant sense of isolation and movement. One impression appears signed and dated 2021 in pencil. Offered as a group, the three sheets form a visually cohesive and decorative ensemble.

Dimensions: 30 H x 22.5 W in. each, approximately.
