I thought he might, like Medusa, seek a better reputation: having been abandoned by his own beastly progenitor (the Cretan bull), imprisoned immediately by a cruel stepfather in a maze-like prison (Minos of Knossos), and forced to kill his only playmates, Asterion (yes, he had a name, the same name as his stepfather’s own stepfather) is now seeking legal representation for paternal abandonment and defamation, and that’s just the start. Looking sharp, Mr Asterion sir! Artwork and photographic background (The Grand Staircase, Knossos Palace) made by Jenks while visiting Crete.
