Monkey Mind #2
$1,100.00
Presenting an imaginative and surreal visual world as a representation of a restless, unstable, and fidgety state of mind—commonly referred to as the "monkey mind." At the center of the canvas, an anthropomorphic monkey becomes the focal point, its ambiguous expression blending curiosity, confusion, and amusement. The monkey is depicted pointing at Maurizio Cattelan's iconic artwork of a duct-taped banana, explicitly painted in the background. This gesture carries a satirical message, questioning the boundary between reality and absurdity, between profound meaning and instant allure. The monkey is not only a classic fable character associated with bananas as its favorite treat but also serves as a metaphor for modern humans, easily distracted by sensational matters without truly understanding the context behind them.
