Framed Linocut Print by Kenyatta Ray, 'Regenerative Strategy'

This item is a framed linocut print by artist Kenyatta Ray, titled 'Regenerative Strategy' as indicated by the included Certificate of Authenticity. The artwork features a striking black and white monochrome portrait, rendered with bold lines and strong contrast typical of linocut printing. The subject appears to be a figure with an afro hairstyle, presented in an abstract or highly stylized manner. The face shows distinct geometric and carved features, with eyes, nose, and mouth suggested through negative space and textured lines. The print itself exhibits a textured quality, characteristic of the linocut process where cut portions appear white and uncut portions print black. There are visible fine scratch-like marks on the black areas, which could be part of the printmaking texture or minor surface wear. The print is housed in a simple, narrow dark red (possibly mahogany-toned) wooden frame, which provides a subtle border without detracting from the artwork. The frame appears to be in good condition with no obvious damage, only minor dust accumulation. A 'Certificate of Authenticity' from 'Regenerative Strategy LLC, Regatta Art' is taped to the upper left corner of the print, under the frame's glass or acrylic cover. The certificate indicates that 'this print or reproduction is the original work of Kenyatta Ray' and includes a signature by 'Kenyatta Ray' dated '3/10/2021', suggesting the estimated age of the artwork. The print is a fine example of modern or contemporary printmaking, showcasing the artist's unique style and craftsmanship.
