Priced at US$40 and available for purchase here - this piece is limited to 50 signed and numbered prints - sized 12 X 15.5 Inches on Archival Pigment Print. Minotaur’s Shame is part of MEGGS’s “Truth in Myth” collection.
PRESS: 'Following from his interest in superheroes and comic book narratives, Meggs delves deeper into the subject of fantasy to explore characters and stories from older mythological tales through the morals, dualities and emotions that these superhuman characters represent.
Fusing elements of contemporary superheroes to ancient mythological beings, “Truth in Myth” is a collection of new paintings, collage, sculpture and mixed media artworks that expressively reference classic renaissance composition and contemporary pop culture.
The layered and detailed works of “Truth in Myth” serve as a continuation of the artist’s search for balance in the understanding of physical and ideological duality of self.'
