It's ok to not be ok

IT'S OK NOT TO BE OK. BUT YOU REALLY SHOULD BE OK, BECAUSE EVERYTHING'S GOING TO BE OK. AND WHEN IT'S NOT OK, YOU'LL BE OK. AND YOU'LL HAVE TO BE OK WITH THAT.

This freestanding sculpture is made of laser cut 1/4" wood from hand drawn text by Matthew Hoffman. This piece measures 13.5" wide x 7" tall x 2.5" deep. Base is signed on the bottom.

Available in Black & Natural Birch Wood.

This piece is made entirely in our studio in Chicago.

This piece is a part of a larger body of work from our "Take Care" Exhibition at the YAB HQ Gallery. View the entire collection of works here. 

Take care of yourself, take care of others, let others take care of you, and of course, take care of your business. Self care is often overlooked, and easy to let slide. Taking care of ourselves should be our number one focus. When on a plane, we're instructed to place the oxygen on ourselves before helping others. We need to be there for ourselves before we can properly be there for others. As soon as we have ourselves situated, we should do everything in our power to take care of others.

It’s often easy to let life slowly eat away at our generosity, but we have to stay strong and give as much as we can to one another, and also to ourselves.

Take care.
