Untitled (diptych)

2001

Composed in 2001, this untitled diptych by Katie Grinnan brings together two irregularly shaped sheets of wove paper united through collage and mixed media. The two components differ subtly in dimension, one measuring approximately 12.25 by 10.25 inches and the other 15 by 15 inches, and their mismatched scales reinforce a sense of productive tension across the pair. Grinnan, whose practice explores perception, memory, and the fragmented nature of experience, channels those preoccupations here into a format that is deliberately open-ended, resisting resolution and inviting the viewer to move between the two panels in search of correspondence or contrast. The work is signed and presents in generally good condition, with each sheet remaining loose rather than mounted, preserving a pleasing informality and material honesty. Traces of double-sided hinging tape appear along the verso edges in places, evidence of prior display that does not detract from the work's integrity. Offered without a frame, the piece affords collectors full latitude in determining how it is presented, whether under glass with refined framing, or with a more casual touch that honors the raw, handmade quality Grinnan brings to her works on paper. For collectors drawn to process-driven work with a strong conceptual foundation, this diptych offers an intimate and accessible entry point into her wider practice.
