The Print

Designed in house by Youtooz artists to celebrate the life and death of Dead Meme, this limited edition is a take on a shy Dead Meme. He looks forward with sadness and loneliness streaming out of his eyes. This piece is individually screen printed by hand using three colors and premium ink on top of firm French 100 coverstock paper with full bleed from the bottom left. The finished work is then framed in a sleek, modern, all black metal frame and ships ready to hang with a plexiglass cover on the front to resist scratches or shatters. Each piece is also signed by hand to include its number, from one to one hundred.

About Dead Meme

His origin can be traced to a video uploaded by Youtuber Gregzilla on February 20th, 2017. Upon viewing the video, a young artist known only by alias tidiestflyer created a 3D model based off Gregzilla's original depiction. Thus began his meteoric rise to international notoriety, making this one of the fastest growing memes of its generation.

By December 2017, it had become a VR phenomenon. Swarms of players using the avatar took over random lobbies, terrorizing innocent users by congregating in groups to ask if anyone "knows the way" or where they could find their elusive "Queen". When angered or concerned for the safety of the Queen, they have been known to exhibit a defensive reflex of spitting in the direction of potential aggressors.

The memes favorite film is Who Killed Captain Alex? by director Nabwana Isaac Geoffrey Godfrey. Shot entirely in Uganda, the film is rumored to have been produced using a record budget of only $200.00.
