Kara Walker's Snared, lithograph, white silhouette of a figure entangled in a tree against a black background.

Lithograph, on wove paper - Signed with initials and numbered in pencil, published by Camden Arts Centre, London // Snared, a lithograph by Kara Walker from 2013, portrays a powerful silhouette in her distinctive cut-out style. Set against a black background, a white figure, bent and entangled, struggles within the branches of a bare, twisted tree. The stark contrast emphasizes themes of entrapment and resistance, capturing an evocative tension within the composition. Walker’s work often addresses complex historical and social issues, particularly those related to race and identity, and Snared continues this exploration by symbolically representing struggle and resilience. The piece, signed and numbered by the artist, measures 27.9 x 21.6 cm.

What is Hard Edge Art?

Hard Edge art is a style of abstract painting that became popular in the 1960s. It features areas of color separated by crisp, sharp edges that are painted with geometric precision. The term hard-edge painting was coined by art critic Jules Langsner to describe this approach, which contrasts with the softer, more fluid forms of other abstract styles.
