Description

*Unfolding #2* (2023), a pressure print monotype by Yoonmi Nam, presents a symmetrical, ghostly impression of an unfolded box or carton template centered on a warm tan-beige ground. The faint, layered outlines—rectangular flaps, tabs, and creases—appear pressed rather than drawn, creating a pale, almost monochromatic image with only subtle tonal variation between the object's imprint and the surrounding paper. No figures are present; the mood is quiet and spare, framed simply in white against a neutral wall.
