Relief print from letterpress plate on Italian mould-made Revere paper - Signed and numbered on the front // Julie Mehretu's Sapphic Strophe 2 from the 2011 suite Sapphic Strophes is a relief print that exemplifies the artist's mastery of abstract gestural mark-making. The piece features a dense composition of fine, chaotic lines that overlap and interact across a stark white background, evoking a sense of movement and energy. The layered strokes suggest maps, weather patterns, or fragmented text, leaving room for varied interpretations. This work highlights Mehretu’s exploration of identity, history, and spatial dynamics through abstraction. Signed and numbered, this print is a testament to her technical precision and conceptual depth.

What is Gestural?
Gestural art is a term that describes painting with freely sweeping brushstrokes. The primary goal of gestural art is to allow the artist to physically express emotional impulses. The varied, yet expressive paint marks are intended to convey the artist's inner thoughts and emotions, which viewers are believed to understand through the dynamic and spontaneous application of paint.
