As an illustration enthusiast there are very few ways I can speak ill of this T-shirt. That’s why I picked it to be worn for the press photography you may have seen around the start of my THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE project. Its major selling point for me is the illustration. The whacking great big illustration that clings to each shoulder and tumbles over the chest like some sort of artist bling.
Amongst an array of swirling line work and broken fragments of texture, hangs a large cross-shaped amulet with precision shading and detail. I’m really impressed with how much activity and movement is conveyed in this drawing, and the stark black art against the pale and fading blue fabric are an excellent combination.
I picked this up originally in TKMaxx where T-shirts typically go to die. Or to be resurrected, depending on how you look at it. Either way most of the garments are defective in some way, but unless the obscure patternation in this design was actually some sort of bee-nesting-in-screenprinters-ear malfunction, I can't identify anything wrong with this piece and enjoy wearing it.
