Joshua Homme
What is a villain to some,
a hero to others & don't
mean nothin' to one?
Didn't hear you mate,
I was drifting downstream.
Words by Joshua Homme.
The first official portrait of
one of rocks most dynamic,
mesmerizing & inventive
musicians.
During lockdown John Harris of Beyond the Pale asked
Josh what he thought of the gallery
doing a portrait of him.
He was enthusiastic &
naturally wanted some input.
The design behind his head is
" The Helm of Awe"
Josh was adamant the
Viking symbol
be featured on the poster.
Aegishjalmr, or the
Helm of Awe,
is a Viking runic symbol
designed to protect warriors
in battle, and also give them
courage and strength.
The symbol can also be used
to give a person the fortitude
to overcome their fears.
Joshua Homme the family
name originated in Norway,
a country with a long historical
connection to Vikings.
It's not too hard to imagine
Joshua Homme standing tall
on the prow of a Viking
longship as it sets sail.
Joshua Homme,
Rhys Cooper the artist
& John collaborated on
every aspect of this work.
