Held, on the record.
As I sit here in contemplation, my mind's consumed by the daunting prospect of placing a wager on the very fabric of my existence. The magnitude of this decision is not lost on me, for it has the power to shape my legacy for eternity.
For it is not just my own story that I am crafting, but that of all those who have come before me. Each decision I make, every step I take, has the power to shape the narrative of my ancestors and their impact on the world.
How big, actually.
Drawn to scale against a person of average height. Every size is a 4:5 rectangle, the same proportion as the work itself, so nothing is cropped to fit.
Sizes are the printed image. Framed works add the moulding around that. Standard shipping is included at every size.
Three ways to own it.
Same image, same edition pool, same certificate. What changes is the object it arrives as, and what you have to do when it gets there.
