About the Artwork:
New life and old lie in layers like foundations in thousand-year-old cities. Keep your eyes along the ground and step cautiously, caringly. Make yourself small: hide in the empty spaces. Cautiously expand and grow into each corner, extending yourself down into the whispering tangle of rhizomes and roots. This is your place now too.

(Artist Bio)
Caroline Harrison is an artist and illustrator living in New York. Her work has been used by a number of artists across the heavy and underground music scenes, including SunnO))), Dethklok, Pig Destroyer, Kool Keith, Inter Arma, KEN mode, Pyrrhon, Artificial Brain, Chat Pile, Pile, Portrayal of Guilt, Gigan, and Immortal Bird. Her drive to examine and understand experiences with alienation, resilience, anxiety, and horror informs her choices of repulsive or disquieting subjects. She seeks to capture that sense of confusion that comes from unexpected mixtures of beauty and ugliness. Her drawings leverage the medium’s immediacy, its physicality, and its foundational relationship to our introductory experiences with art to create meaningful connections with the viewer.
