"To find the truth, one must first face the myths of their own making." ~ASH 

Micah is a focal point of the Mythical Truth series. This collection explores the deep psychological landscapes where reality meets legend. In this series, ASH goes beyond personal trauma to examine "mythical truths." These are the essential, often painful, human experiences that rise above individual stories and become part of a shared human mythology. 

The artwork features a heavy impasto texture, creating a sense of "living stone." It feels as if the characters are emerging from the earth or from historical memory. The central figure illustrates the raw struggle of a prophet or seeker, while the surrounding skulls and roses represent the eternal cycle of life, death, and the wisdom that comes from suffering. By placing these figures in an atmospheric void, ASH encourages viewers to see their own internal "mythical truths" reflected in the artwork.
