Hello! Thank you so much!
That piece is very tricky. I made it around the time that I both discovered Welcome To Night Vale and was reading a lot about surveillance in the United States. The two subjects naturally went very well together. It’s a homage to the former and an exploration of the latter, to be brief.
In some ways, it feels like personal work…but at the same time, since part of it is a WTNV homage, it is problematic. The WTNV creators frown upon selling any work having to do with their show, and I am not keen on stepping on their toes. So I think for now I will abstain from making the print available. Unless the creators of the show let me sell it through their show/site/name, I would feel uncomfortable doing otherwise.
Thank you for asking!
