The Rise Above Barbwire Flower letterpress print is inspired by the Black Flag song "Rise Above" as well as the philosophy to rise above pettiness and fight against injustice no matter how difficult things may be. The flowers growing from the barbwire symbolizes positive growth out of an oppressive situation. Hope and perseverance lift us while fear and anger drag us down. RISE ABOVE we're gonna RISE ABOVE!
-Shepard
