Life is a Highway is an evolving suite of printed ephemera: physical evidence for the thoughts and conversations we are and aren’t having in America. This work appropriates vernacular graphic forms to prompt discussion and reflection and bears witness to the unrest and anxiety of modern life in America. It speaks to the idea of “freedom” and the metaphorical open road—that we must keep rolling, moving, and progressing, as individuals, as a community, and as a country. Life is a Highway.
