about this work

For this ‘artlead objects’ yoga mat, David Shrigley made a drawing with the text This is not what I wanted, I wanted something different, I do not know exactly what I wanted but I did not want this, yet they say there is nothing that can be done and that it is too late, so I must be satisfied with this and so must you. We made this yoga mat so you can leave it out and use it more frequently.

 

Because we believe yoga and meditation are important to our mental health, we offer free shipping in the EU and US!

 

 

 

 

 

about David Shrigley

David Shrigley is best known for his distinctive drawing style and works that make satirical comments on everyday situations and human interactions. His quick-witted drawings and hand-rendered texts are typically deadpan in their humour and reveal chance utterings like snippets of over-heard conversations. Reoccurring themes and thoughts pervade his storytelling capturing child-like views of the world, the perspective of aliens and monsters or the compulsive habits of an eavesdropper shouting out loud.

While drawing is at the centre of his practice, the artist also works across an extensive range of media including sculpture, large-scale installation, animation, painting, photography and music. Shrigley consistently seeks to widen his public by operating frequently outside the gallery sphere such as in prolific artist publications and collaborative music projects.
