| Notes | Standard edition, s/# out of 850 (#s1-100 were sold by the artist, the remainder sold by the band at the show and online after) Foil edition, s/# out of 50 From the artist: In 2005 the Foo Fighter's released 'In Your Honor' and it's a record that's been on my mind lately. The band went on the campaign trail with John Kerry in a move I found surprising at the time. The Foo Fighters aren't an overtly political band and I'm not an overtly political artist. Listening to that record again and studying the packaging, which features a tiny bison, some ideas for an image started to emerge. When I think of America two symbols immediately come to mind: an eagle and a bison. The bison, standing larger than life, represents the people of America. The eagle is a representation of the ideas that make America what it is. Lately, I've noticed many people staring the eagle directly in the eyes, questioning the ideas that make America the great country it is, and wondering whether or not those ideas and values are shrinking. The arrows all point dead center as a reminder that all eyes are on us. |
