A lineup of caps filled with messages from three contemporary artists.
The Message
T-shirts often reflect the thoughts, and trends of our times. Long before social media, T-shirts were a canvas on which people everywhere could freely express their messages. We returned to the origin of the graphic T-shirt and collaborated with three contemporary artists who lead the art scene in the U.S. and London.
Lakwena
Lakwena means 'messenger of the chief' in the northern Ugandan language of Acholi. Born in 1986, Lakwena's name is reflected in her artistic practice, which is primarily focused on messages. Utilizing bright color and bold text, Lakwena creates eye-catching and instantly recognizable paintings which can be understood to be "escape routes, afrofuturistic portals to utopia".
