Edition of 100 - Soft ground etching on 175 gsm Zerkall buff laid paper - In mint condition // Untitled (Abstract Profile) by Joe Bradley, created in 2018, is a limited edition soft ground etching that features an abstracted profile of a human face. Rendered in simple, bold lines, the profile is presented against a background of alternating light and dark rectangular blocks, adding a geometric quality to the composition. The etching, printed on 175 gsm Zerkall buff laid paper, exhibits a raw and expressive texture that emphasizes the spontaneity of Bradley’s line work. With its minimalist aesthetic and interplay of positive and negative space, this work suggests Bradley’s exploration of form and identity, as the fragmented profile invites viewers to consider the face as both familiar and deconstructed. Limited to an edition of 100, this piece encapsulates Bradley’s distinctive approach to abstraction and portraiture.

What is abstract art?
Abstract art uses form, shape, line, and color to create a visual experience without attempting to represent external reality. The composition exists independently of the world's visual references, focusing on expressing ideas and emotions through non-representational means.
