About David Shrigley
To coincide with David Shrigley’s Fourth Plinth commission Really Good in London’s Trafalgar Square, YSP presented a display of the artist’s original drawings.
Displayed in YSP Centre, the four artworks formed part of a new body of work by Shrigley. Using acrylic paint and oil stick, the artist employed his distinctive combination of drawing and text to create these large-scale works on paper. Shrigley’s quick witted work is usually deadpan in its humour and comments on human nature and everyday situations.

Large Spindle Piece was based on the shape of a piece of flint with protruding points that Moore found near his Perry Green home.
