A House Divided

From the artist:

"It's somehow perfect that this print is coming out in 2020. I first sketched the idea about 7 years ago, and finished the piece in late 2019, but in the months since Tim and I first discussed it as a Nakatomi release it's gained meaning in ways I couldn't have predicted.

At it's core it's about the way a person can become divided against themself, privately split in two. The house in this design is based on my own personal history with that inner division, but by now it's taken on a broader meaning thanks to the isolation we've all experienced this year. And today, this idea of a fragmentated spirit seems to apply as much to nations and communities as it did to my own life when I first drew this picture."
