The Wife Beater

A collection of my old t-shirts I wore until they (almost) literally fell off my body. I loved them and was proud to carry the message they had to convey to the world. Eventually, they showed signs of wear, holes and stains. The colour and design washed out and faded by the sun. They have had a long life, some of them for almost 20 years.

Now that they are buried as garments, they are given a new life in art. Stretched on canvas, primed with acrylics and painted over with thin layers of acrylics. Now they shine again as if they are new, which they are because this is their second life, as a picture, as a work of art, finally free from function and purpose.

The sales price includes 5% art tax.
