Chevron in Black



The chevron signifies protection and is often given to those who have, in some way, served the greater good of a people. It is a simplified drawing of the roof of a house, and has been a symbol dear to humans throughout our history...

This piece juxtaposes this symbol of service, protection and good with scratched lines, varied surface, and an unsure hand, almost as if that which scrawled it is unworthy, obsessive, maybe even psychotic....It's a very demented take on a symbol which is supposed to evoke comfort...
