About The Edition
David Shrigley's painting "No One Is Happier Than Me" is a striking example of his signature dark humor and absurdist style. This piece features a crudely drawn figure with an exaggerated smile and the titular phrase scrawled above. The composition, with its childlike simplicity, belies the underlying sense of unease and ironic detachment that characterizes much of Shrigley's work. Through this piece, Shrigley invites the viewer to consider the complexities of happiness and raises questions about the authenticity of outward appearances. "No One Is Happier Than Me" encapsulates Shrigley's ability to provoke thoughtful reflection while eliciting a wry chuckle from those who engage with his art.
