“Not an image of joy,
but the clinical apparition of its erasure.
A pop icon melting under the weight of systematic excess;
the final protective mask recorded before the crack.”

Section: Artworks / Critical Pop Collection
Description:
“ARAKIRI (2026)” is a fundamental piece in the SOME® collection, an A3 artwork on hammered paper that embodies the raw intensity of the artist’s Manifesto. The subject, a distorted and suffering Bart Simpson, becomes an icon of modern addiction, captured in the visceral moment of “jaw-grinding” from ecstasy and smoking weed, under the influence of pharmaceuticals.
The artwork is a direct and provocative response to the themes of “THREESOME”, dragging the observer inside the “psychic darkness” and the slow-motion effect described in the manifesto. Bart is no longer the rebellious cartoon child; he is a consumed “biological machine,” with “back teeth worn down from the grinding, and missing the front ones.”
Key Visual Points:
- The Catatonic Stare: Bart’s eyes reflect the “chemical pink midnight” and the lack of a destination, a dialogue born from ashes.
- The Distorted Jaw: The visual rendering of the grinding jaw and the face hanging from a hook physically expresses “mental illness.”
- The Armed Smoke: The armed cigarette smoked at 7 in the morning, coughing and dragging the night back up, is a central element of the composition.
