Acrylic on Fabriano Artistico wove paper - Published by Counter Editions, London - Initialled and dated in pencil verso // David Shrigley's Shits (2019) is a playful and ironic acrylic on paper that showcases the artist's signature combination of simplicity and humor. The composition features a series of colorful, unevenly painted circles, randomly scattered across the page. Each circle is a different color, ranging from bright yellows, reds, and blues to muted pastels and earthy tones. At the top of the piece, the word SHITS is written in a straightforward, almost childlike font. This irreverent work humorously contrasts the vibrant, seemingly joyful colors with the crudeness of the text, blending a sense of whimsy with Shrigley's deadpan, tongue-in-cheek commentary on modern life. By juxtaposing crude language with abstract, colorful forms, the piece reflects Shrigley’s ability to challenge artistic conventions and expectations with wit and simplicity.
