Shag “TERAPHIM” (120 x 170cm)

No doubt inspired by Henri Rousseau’s lush, leafy late-nineteenth-century paintings, this huge screen print by Shag shares characteristics such as bright colors, attention to detail, and exotic subject matter with the Frenchman’s works.

In an impenetrable tropical jungle, perhaps on the most remote island in the Pacific, we find a couple carefree enjoying a jungle jacuzzi, surrounded by all kinds of plants and creatures… some shows the paradise and others threatening.

SHAG’s dry humor: “Prometheus has left a gift of three flaming skulls, but whose heads could they be if we are the only two people in this colossal hot house? The Creation myth is disturbed when new gods appear in the garden”.

The TERAPHIM serigraph limited edition (200) is SOLD-OUT in the USA. We sincerely thank SHAG for hand-signing and numbering from his personal archive this Trial Proof (T/P 6/20). This T/P 6/22 serigraph includes the Certificate of Authenticity (C.O.A.) issued by the gallery.

In Europe, the TERAPHIM framed serigraph is only available here in Budapest or Madrid at the La Fiambera gallery!

DESCRIPTION: SHAG’s limited editions introduced in Budapest are made using the silk-screen (serigraphy) printing method. Serigraphy for additional color depth, saturation, density and texture a perfect match to SHAG’s painting style.

He collaborates with Kolibri Art Studio atelier in Los Angeles for decades for unparalleled quality at enormous sizes for a small, limited edition of 200 serigraphs. Anywhere from 10 to 25 colors (some colors are printed twice for optimum quality) with hand color-separation required 2 months to print since it is very labor-intensive to complete these unique editions. His media choice is always the US-made, 100% rag, 2 or 4-ply “Rising Museum Board” brand, acid-free, thick archival paper, only with 5cm margins left outside the live area. For the finish, SHAG requires a very expensive UV matte clear coat application only made for silk-screen printing to preserve the serigraph print’s the extra longevity.
