AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Monkey Business – XL Canvas Artwork by La Mama

A monkey, sitting on a toilet, reads his newspaper as if he were an ordinary man. The scene, deliberately absurd, distorts a private moment of daily life to create an image that is at once funny and unsettling. Behind the humor, the work questions our habits, our relationship to time, to boredom, and to modern solitude, in a calm and almost melancholic staging.



Artwork details:
• Edition: Limited to 10 copies (3/10)
• Dimensions: 46 x 66 cm (including white border)
• Support: Fine art print on premium canvas
• Framing: Sold unframed
• Delivery: Careful and secure packaging
• Certificate of authenticity: Provided by email



Technical and artistic work:
Artwork produced in advanced mixed media technique, combining photography, digital painting, and manual retouching. Each element is worked with precision to create a realistic and credible scene, reinforcing the contrast between the absurd situation and the meticulous visual treatment.



About La Mama:
La Mama explores the boundaries between humor, social satire, and contemporary aesthetics. Her work distorts familiar scenes to reveal deeper readings on the human condition, mixing visual elegance with a self-deprecating humor.



Why this title?
Monkey Business evokes both the absurdity of the scene and the idea of an inverted role play, where the animal becomes the ironic mirror of our own behaviors.
