The Arrow of Truth

Marcel Dzama 's The Arrow of Truth (2023) is a limited edition lithograph that depicts a masked female archer suspended among swirling blue clouds set against a field of vivid yellow. Rendered in Dzama's distinctive graphic style, the figure recalls mythological and allegorical imagery while asserting a clear sense of agency and resolve. The composition is accompanied by a handwritten inscription reading, "The arrow of truth will cut through the dust of lies. No matter how thick," reinforcing the fine art print 's engagement with themes of truth, deception, and moral clarity. Published in 2023 in a limited edition of 70 lithographs, The Arrow of Truth is hand-signed and numbered by the artist, combining surreal imagery with political and philosophical undertones and translating his narrative-driven drawing practice into a carefully produced edition.
