I printed up just a portion of a portion of Ursula K. LeGuin's acceptance speech for the The National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters.
***please note backgrounds will differ for each print. The colors will be blue and purple in every print but there will be variations within the colors.***
I highly recommend listening to it here: https://www.ursulakleguin.com/nbf-medal
Books aren’t just commodities; the profit motive is often in conflict with the aims of art. We live in capitalism, its power seems inescapable — but then, so did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art. Very often in our art, the art of words.
