Untitled (Cat Watches Your Seizure)

2023

Created in 2023, this offset lithography features Shrigley's unsettling juxtaposition of animals and human suffering rendered on 200g Munken Lynx paper. The title combines an innocent animal subject with a disturbing human medical event, creating cognitive dissonance through compositional contrast. The work exemplifies Shrigley's approach to challenging viewer expectations and comfort levels through unexpected combinations. His crude line work emphasizes the crude nature of the depicted scenario rather than softening it. This piece reinforces the artist's reputation for unflinching examinations of taboo subjects.
