PROCESS.

Faded from above, darkened from below. The shirt sits between two directions.

    PIGMENT

    The t-shirt was covered in black pigment, a layer resting on the surface of the cotton, made to be worn away.

    STONE

    Stone washing broke the pigment down into charcoal. It lifted first along the seams, the collar and the folds, the places where a shirt carries its age.

    LIGHT

    The graphics were burned in by laser on the chest and the back. The light shifts the colour of the fibre itself, so the print reads like a watermark rather than something laid on top.

    DESCENT

    The lower part of the shirt was taken back into black, rising from the hem and fading out toward the chest. No hard line: the dark simply climbs until it lets go.
