A series of portly cats engaged in human activities, all imbued with a distinct Japanese aesthetic. The cats, adorned in traditional attire, are seen feasting, dancing, dreaming, and caring for others, exhibiting a blend of decadence and tenderness.

Listen to Alsoguppyme discuss this work.
Alsoguppyme makes surreal images out of the ordinary, twisting them until they feel both funny and unsettling. Midlife shifts leak into the work — the cracks, the restlessness, the changes you don’t quite have words for. She follows those glitches as they turn into strange reflections of daily life.
