GENERAL INFORMATION
MY GOAL WITH THIS PROJECT IS TO CREATE CLOTHING THAT SHOWCASES MY ARTWORK THROUGH A MEDIUM INSPIRED BY MUSIC. I WANT TO KEEP IT ACCESSIBLE WITH A RANGE OF PRICE POINTS, REFLECTING THE INCLUSIVITY AND DIVERSITY FOUND IN MUSIC SCENES. A LOT OF MY INSPIRATION COMES FROM THRASHED PUNK AND ROCK BAND MERCHANDISE, PIECES THAT CARRY HISTORY. I’M DRAWN TO THE IMPERFECTIONS, THE WEAR, AND THE WAY THESE GARMENTS BECOME PERSONAL ARTIFACTS OVER TIME. THIS PROJECT IS ABOUT CAPTURING THAT SPIRIT AND GIVING IT NEW LIFE THROUGH MY OWN VISUAL LANGUAGE.
BLANKS
- ALL PIECES WILL FEATURE THE SAME GRAPHICS AND HAND-DISTRESSING, REGARDLESS OF PRICE, THE ONLY FACTOR AFFECTING COST WILL BE THE ERA AND RARITY OF THE GARMENT BLANK USED.
- SOME GRAPHICS WILL BE PRINTED EXCLUSIVELY ON SPECIFIC BLANKS AT A FIXED PRICE, CHOSEN INTENTIONALLY TO REFLECT THE INSPIRATION BEHIND EACH PIECE MORE CLEARLY THROUGH THE GARMENT ITSELF.
GRAPHICS
- MY GRAPHICS ARE INSPIRED BY MUSIC COVERS AND BOOTLEG BAND TEES, DRAWING FROM THE RAW ENERGY THEY CARRY. I’M ALSO INFLUENCED BY THE NATURAL WEAR THESE SHIRTS DEVELOP OVER TIME, A RESULT OF BEING WORN CONSTANTLY, NOT JUST FOR STYLE, BUT BECAUSE OF THE PERSONAL CONNECTION PEOPLE HAVE TO THE MUSIC AND THE GRAPHIC BEHIND IT.
- EACH GRAPHIC IS CREATED FROM MY ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPHY, DRAWINGS, OR OTHER MEDIUMS SOME OF WHICH ARE DIGITALLY EDITED
RELEASE SCHEDULE
- PLANNING A LIMITED DROP OF FIVE DIFFERENT GRAPHICS PRINTED ON VINTAGE SHORT SLEEVES, LONG SLEEVES, HOODIES, AND CREWNECKS, AVAILABLE IN SIZES S TO XL. RELEASING MID TO LATE JUNE.
- MORE INFO WILL BE SHARED IN THE COMING WEEKS AS I WORK ON SAMPLES AND FIGURE OUT THE FINAL VISION
