BEGGING FOR CHANGE by Meek | Art Print

THE PRINT

Street artist Meek's 'Begging for Change' first appeared on a railway station wall in Melbourne in 2004. The iconic work features a life-size man, sitting dejectedly at ground level, holding a sign that reads, “Keep your coins, I want change”. By displaying this work on a railway station wall Meek was able to engage a public, who, in their daily commute, pass by homeless and symbolically disenfranchised people every day. The text on the homeless man’s sign, however, suggests a more altruistic plight than the individual homeless. Witty and irreverent, this work visually composes a strong social comment about money and its inability to solve all problems. This premium quality giclee art print has been produced on 100% cotton rag textured fine art stock using archival quality inks resulting in a superior print suitable for museum or gallery display.

Size: 30cm x 40cm
