A silkscreen on painted wooden board, "Hijiri with Book" exemplifies Julian Opie's signature reductive style, rendering the human figure in bold, clean lines and flat areas of color. The work strips portraiture down to its most essential elements, depicting the subject with Opie's characteristic minimal facial features and simplified forms. The interplay between the silkscreened image and the painted wooden board adds a subtle tactile dimension to the otherwise graphic, almost iconographic composition.
