Two contrasting faces meet across a dividing line, surrounded by interlocking noughts and crosses. Their closeness recalls childhood friendship becoming forbidden love in a society built on racial hierarchy and unequal power. Gold and deep blue give this hand-drawn print both warmth and tension: connection pressing against the rules that keep people apart.
Giclée printed with archival inks on premium textured Hahnemühle fine art paper. Supplied unframed.
Hand-drawn by Abby+Owen
Every illustration began as one of our own loose concept drawings before we developed the colour, linework and texture.
