Artwork description
In a moment when nations invest more in defence than in culture, the balance between those ideas begins to shift. What we choose to protect becomes clearer; what we risk leaving behind, less so. The work does not resolve that tension. Instead, it holds it in place - inviting the viewer to consider what endures, what disappears, and what, exactly, was promised in the first place.

Archival pigment inks on 308gsm museum grade cotton rag
Details:
- Print on Paper
- From a limited edition of 50
