No Creature Too Small Two-color 11x17” Screenprint Lately I have been thinking a lot about the traditions surrounding death and mourning (shocking, I know.) I find it fascinating how these rituals completely transcend religion and offer us comfort knowing that we have treated an empty vessel with such respect. Creating a monument in memoriam is something many of us have done since childhood, whether it be for our beloved pets, a bird fallen from a tree, or a dead insect while playing in the yard. We practice grief and mourning because it is part of life, and we understand that from a young age. This print is comprised of photographs and illustration work done by myself. The cross was made of twigs and grass and planted on top of a grave that I made for a carpenter bee last summer. *LIMITED TO 40* . . . . . #screenprint #blackcoffiend #illustrator #art #screenprinting #illustration #grief #memorial #rats #vegan #bees #artist #artwork #print #printmaking #massachusetts #animals #wildlife #death #mourning #funeral #ritual #blue #ink #poster #design #photography #printmakers (at Salem, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7tZ1ylj0uQ/?igshid=4hsnlfxd7qu1
