A good place to start

I am a recent Surface Pattern Graduate of Swansea Metropolitain University and this is my most recent collection which I exhibited for my Degree Show.

I silk screen printed each design onto a t-shirt for exhibition purposes and with the help of my friend Peach Plot I created a mini video of the t-shirts in action!


“Wearing a t-shirt is the simplest, cheapest and easiest way to make a statement visually about your state of mind” Malcolm McLaren


This collection based on youth culture and student life and more specifically being of an age where you are supposed to be maturing but instead grasping onto anything that will keep you from having to grow up. Therefore the designs are initially displayed on t-shirts in response to the t-shirt being an effective tool for public performance in young people’s quest for identity.
