Here Shrigley flip’s the age old idiom, “the writing on the wall” which suggests an imminent sense of doom or misfortune. Shrigley’s colour block of his characteristically bright colour palette combined with the reference to children’s favoured drawing implements, crayons, Shrigley encourages us to reframe the saying, imbuing it with a sense of innocence and optimism.
Shrigley's art is a masterclass in finding the humour in life's everyday moments. With his distinctive wit, Shrigley's art is a breath of fresh air in the world of contemporary art. His unique perspective and small runs of limited-edition prints make his works highly sought after and collectable.
