Untitled, 1999

Ink and acrylic on paper, hand signed by the artist. // Ernesto Neto's Untitled (1999) is a mixed media piece featuring ink and acrylic on paper. The artwork is characterized by an organic, fluid shape in deep black, which dominates the composition. The dark form resembles a soft, elongated loop with blurred, feathered edges that gradually dissipate into the surrounding white space, evoking a sense of movement and flow. The contrast between the intense black and the empty, light background creates a striking visual impact. The central shape feels both abstract and suggestive of natural forms, typical of Neto’s work, which often explores themes of biology, the human body, and organic matter. The softness of the edges and the subtle gradations of tone give the piece a serene, almost meditative quality, inviting viewers to contemplate the balance between form and void. Show Less
