“MY ITCHY MONKEY ARSE” is a playful and provocative artwork that weaves humor and humanity into one cheeky scene. A monkey shamelessly scratches its itchy backside, surrounded by the title text that amplifies the absurdity. Next to its head appears the line: “YOU HAVE TO SCRATCH THAT ITCH OR NOT BUT IT WILL STILL BE ITCHY” — a philosophical wink to the human urge to ease discomfort, even when it seems pointless. The work confronts the viewer with instinct, self-irony, and the inevitable itch of existence.

By now, we are proud owners of several of his original works, and I keep discovering new pieces that speak to me. The communication with Frank is always fun and easy with every purchase! I will definitely continue to expand our collection in the future and am already looking forward to everything that’s yet to come…"
