About Hirotaka Suzuki

Perhaps I am painting the cruelty of contemporary life because it is in opposition to my naïve outlook.

In contrast to the physical features of my paintings, I think I am visualising my feeling of anxiety in contemporary life.

About this artwork

This piece is dedicated to P22, the mountain lion who lived in Griffith Park, Los Angeles for almost a decade. Throughout his journey, from his initial discovery to the way he was handled, there has consistently been a feeling of unease. The tragic traffic accident and euthanasia that ultimately transpired, events that could have been predicted by anyone, sharply contrast with his moniker of "the Wildest celebrity in Hollywood," while at the same time serving as a poignant reminder of our own foolishness and self-centredness.
