From the studio
This one came out of a run where I was feeding the model the word festival and seeing what it did with patriotic iconography when nobody was watching. It built a Coney Island scene with a colonial committee inside it. I tried to redirect it three or four times and each version kept the burger at the center, so I stopped redirecting. The banner mistranslated Patrick Henry on its own and I left it. It is a better quote.
A crowded circle of sloths and raccoons orbiting a centerpiece of burgers and hot dogs the size of a small monument. A flag waves in the back. The banner reads INDEPENDENCE OR EATS LATER, which is not a misquote so much as a corrected one. Painted in the loud, dense palette of a vintage diner poster that wandered into a colonial reenactment and decided to stay for the food.
For the person who believes the most defensible national ritual is the long meal. Printed on a Comfort Colors 1717 in black — 6.1oz ringspun garment-dyed cotton, dense and dye-rich, the kind of black that holds color the way a good cookout holds the afternoon. Runs slightly large; size down for fitted, true to size for the boxy crowd-scene drape.
Comfort Colors 1717 heavyweight tee — 6.1oz ringspun cotton, garment-dyed for a lived-in feel. Printed direct-to-garment with water-based inks. Gets softer with every wash.
