Freedom by Austin Dingess - IAC
$20.00 - $23.00
Artist Statement:
"My approach to this design was to keep it simple. I have always been a fan of minimalistic styles of art and thought it would work great with the application of the design. I also wanted to make a design that would summarize what this clothing line is about. Which, to me, is giving back people's freedom. When deciding on a concept for the design, I knew I wanted to incorporate an object that could symbolize freedom. In the end, I decided on a leaf. Leaves blow in the wind with nothing restraining them, so I figured it would be a good symbol. So I took that symbol and used it in a way that goes along with what I believed to be the purpose of this clothing line. In essence, the design is a symbolic depiction of someone offering a person's freedom back to them." -Austin Dingess
Open Your Eyes by Ryan Pugh - IAC
$20.00 - $23.00
Artist Statement:
"What inspired this was the seemingly blind response society tends to have when it comes to sex crimes. Whether that be rape, trafficking, assault, harrasment, etc., the world and society turns a blind eye more often than not and likes to pretend it doesn't happen or exist. The image of an eyeball by itself is (pardon the pun) eyecatching enough, so tying that to the "open your eyes" message made sense to me. What originally planted the idea was Vein's cover art for their upcoming album "errorzone", and the idea spiraled from there. Just a in your face, not forgiving, look at it kind of design." -Ryan Pugh
