"I wanted to make a really fun image for this print so I decided to make a piece that had an element of escapism. I like to imagine that she’s blazing off into the strange desert sky with her reptoid boyfriend riding behind her (I specifically liked the idea of her driving the cycle) and neither of them have any cares." - Kristen Liu-Wong
