The "Lovesick Deck Coming Home" presents a poignant and evocative image. This artwork depicts arrows piercing the body of a headless colonizer riding a horse. The horse has flowers in place of hooves, and the scene is set against a backdrop of mountains.

This imagery suggests a narrative of conflict, conquest, and its aftermath. The headlessness of the colonizer may symbolize a loss of identity or the dehumanizing effects of colonialism. The arrows stuck in the body further emphasize themes of violence and resistance, highlighting the brutality inherent in colonization.

The flowers for hooves add a surreal and striking element to the scene, juxtaposing the violence with symbols of beauty and life. This contrast may symbolize resilience, renewal, or the enduring connection to the land despite the atrocities inflicted upon it.

Set against the backdrop of mountains, the scene gains a sense of timelessness and permanence. The mountains may also symbolize the resilience of indigenous peoples and their enduring connection to their ancestral lands.

With a width of 8.25 inches, this skateboard deck likely offers a balance between stability and maneuverability, suitable for various skateboarding styles. The combination of powerful imagery and functional design makes the "Lovesick Deck Coming Home" a compelling piece that prompts reflection on the legacy of colonialism and the ongoing struggles for justice and reconciliation.
