The artwork titled “Untitled” was created by Francesca Woodman in the year 1980. The genre of the artwork falls under photo and nude painting (nu).
The artwork features a black and white photograph of a figure partially enclosed within an archway of a brick structure, suggestive of a kiln or similar construct. The figure’s posture appears to be hunched or bending, conveying a sense of introspection or confinement. Below the photograph, there is handwritten text which reads, “Beanny bean im in the playoffs come fetch me if the mood or a rock should strike you”, adding a personal and enigmatic context to the image. The overall composition, with its dynamic angles and textual element, evokes an introspective and surreal atmosphere characteristic of Woodman’s distinctive photographic style.
