The Naughty, a 2019 lithograph on Somerset wove by the San Francisco-based artist Koak, captures the quietly subversive figuration that has made her work so compelling to collectors of contemporary drawing and print. Rendered in Koak's signature gestural line, the composition inhabits an ambiguous emotional register, balancing something playful and unsettling in equal measure. The soft, absorbent surface of Somerset wove supports the lithographic ink with a warmth that suits Koak's intimate, hand-drawn sensibility, preserving the spontaneity of her mark-making within the disciplined structure of the print medium. Produced in a tightly controlled edition of twenty, the work is hand-signed by the artist and numbered verso, lending each impression a personal quality that aligns with Koak's broader practice of treating multiples with the same care afforded to unique works. At 40.5 by 49.5 centimetres, the sheet is substantial enough to command a wall without losing the sense of closeness and psychological intimacy that defines her figures. Koak has built a devoted following through exhibitions and publications that position her at the intersection of alternative comics culture and fine art, and her prints, produced in small editions, have become sought-after entry points into a body of work that rewards sustained attention. This impression is currently offered through Chiswick Auctions.
