For artist Joe Simpson’s project “ACT” he asked British actors what roles they dreamed of playing. Michael Sheen said he always wanted to be Max from Maurice Sendak’s Where The Wild Things Are, and Joe produced this beautiful painting.
The ACT project was due to be part of Joe’s 2020 Exhibition Tour, which was been paused due to world events. Update: Joe Simpson London Exhibition 2022
