About this work

Overview

This untitled digital print on linen is a work by American artist Wade Guyton, created in 2018. It is held in the collection of The Museum of Modern Art.

Subject & Meaning

The print features two black X-shapes, formed from tightly stacked horizontal lines, set against a white background. The Xs are positioned diagonally, with a slight overlap at their centers. The simplicity of the composition and the use of a single color create a striking visual effect.

Technique & Style

The work showcases Guyton's use of digital technology to create precise, graphic images. The clean, striped texture of the X-shapes is a result of the artist's process, which involves digital printing on unconventional supports, in this case, linen.
