Love Printmaking's flexibility, again and again. #comics #comicbook #printmaking #letterpress #bookmaking #peterkoch

Inspired in part by my brother's struggles with police and institutions as a black man and of course by my own critical consciousness as a young white artist, this work is the beginning of something I've continued to pursue.
