Collectionzz are commemorating International Rush Day (aka 21/12 Day) with a new, officially-licensed, limited-edition poster screenprint by illustrator Miles Tsang - the fourth installment in their 2112 print series, where each print is inspired by one part of the 7-part 2112 suite. The first was their 2020 Temples of Syrinx print, the second was 2021's Oracle: The Dream print, and the third was 2023's Overture. This latest print is inspired by Discovery and was created by artist Miles Tsang. From the artist:

"This is my take on 'Discovery' which depicts a man who finds an ancient guitar in a cave as he begins to play. The man is fully ensconced in the shape of the musical tool he's found, a loose guitar silhouette suggested by the beam of light and surrounding tendrils of energy surrounding the discoverer and warping the area surrounding him with emitted energy. The Chinese money plants at the bottom of the poster arranged to loosely echo Neil Peart's drum kit, so he is present in some form alongside the two guitars in the image.

The man reconnects with the essence of art that's been deprived of him through living in the society under the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx in the year 2112. His expression is one of focus as the spirit of music courses through him, blissfully unaware of the trap he's already in with the grips of the Red Star of the Solar Federation (visually manifested as the star logo he sits upon) that will eventually destroy his means of expression and his soul.

The image pays homage to the classic Starman logo symbolizing the struggle between artless autocracy and the nakedly creative individual." - Miles Tsang

The 18"x24" screenprints come in a main edition for $50 and a Foil Edition for $100. You can purchase these or any other of their many Rush prints at iconic.collectionzz.com.
