William Kentridge No Idea Thought Image screen print with bold text, ink splatters, and timestamp on lined mining company page.

Screenprint on a numbered page of a Mining Company, South-Africa. - Signed in red pencil // No Idea Thought Image by William Kentridge is a screen print created in 2016 that explores themes of ambiguity and negation. Printed on a lined page from a South African mining company’s ledger, the work features bold text reading “NO” alongside the words “IDEA,” “THOUGHT,” and “IMAGE.” Ink splatters punctuate the composition, evoking a sense of spontaneous action and interruption. Below, a precise timestamp adds a layer of specificity to an otherwise abstract piece, as if capturing a fleeting moment of creative block or philosophical contemplation. Signed in red pencil, this limited edition print reflects Kentridge’s engagement with memory, history, and the fragmented nature of thought.

What is activist art?

Activist Art is a form of art created to address social and political issues. It often involves public engagement and works closely with communities to raise awareness or inspire change. While it can include elements of performance art, it is not limited to this form. Examples include creating and distributing social protest posters or organizing community-based art projects that highlight specific causes.
