Eighth Generation founder, artist, and educator Louie Gong (Nooksack) created his original Internal Affair design during the height of the ugly 2016 presidential campaign. The hummingbirds reflect the rudimentary roles that groups of human beings—regardless of political orientation—tend to recreate over and over again: the victim, the hero, and the bully.
These roles also play out on a smaller, personal scale in our social lives or family relationships. Even the internal voice that helps us make decisions can lead towards oversimplifying our problems by adopting one of these roles. In doing so, we rob ourselves of the ability to appreciate complexity and diversity. This piece is a reminder that the pathway to sustainable relationships—whether they are play out on a national scale or inside our own head—is more complicated than a sound bite or click bait headline.
Louie created the original painting in 2017 with wood dye, spray paint, and acrylic on a wood panel, and a run of limited-edition prints at a slightly different size was produced. This new Internal Affairs Fine Art Print represents a continuation of Eighth Generation's own fine art printing capacity.
Known as giclée prints (pronounced "zhe-clay"), our fine art prints are distinguished from mass-produced prints due to their quality, longevity, and value. We print using a state-of-the-art, large-format fine art printer in our Seattle-based art studio. Because they're printed on acid-free paper, our prints won't degrade over time, and when displayed out of direct sunlight will maintain their color saturation and fine detail for decades.
