To all our beloved watchers and clients...
5 years ago
This year has been a rough road and history has proven-- This trend will continue.
The outcry heard all over the world is one which has never carried such a booming voice. A voice that for far too long has been forced into silence over and over in the past. Beaten, bruised, broken and brutalized.
Do not be afraid to be part of that voice.
We want our clients and watchers to know that even though we generally do not write journals pertaining to our political views or where we stand on human rights issues-- We are with you-- Black Lives Matter.
It has taken considerable time to find the words to put into this post. Working on commissions, but watching the events unfold which lead to the protests in Minneapolis. To the countless videos posted. To our Twitter feed being almost entirely about the movement-- posting the art without letting our clients, watchers, and followers know where we stand-- became hollow. Reaching out to close friends and people effected the most by this movement on a personal level has simply not been enough. We felt that it was important to show our stance in the community. Imperative for it to be known before we could continue supplying our art to the masses.
For everyone attending the protests. For braving the risk of your health and safety to improve the lives of others-- This is monumental. It is amazing. Without stepping up, stepping out and demanding the change, the voice would continue to fall on deaf ears.
Stay safe and keep moving forward.
