No… this is not a post about our dirty socks and undies.
This is about what looks to be a great show happening at Nuuanu Gallery in Honolulu, Hawaii called Dirty Laundry: “The Art of the Stain in Modern T-Shirt Design”.
Dirty Laundry looks to explore the phrase “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle” in the context of how a ruin can be transformed into art. The concept is simple: artists stain their shirts with lipstick, grass, wine, grease or something else “dirty”. Then, they must create a custom piece of artwork using the stain as an integral part of the design.
If you can’t squeeze a trip in to go to Hawaii to see the gallery show, don’t worry, they’ll be posting the results of the challenge online, as well. The artists will be creating VERY limited runs of their designs (for obvious reasons), but you will be able to purchase what’s available online, and there’s a chance that popular designs will get longer runs.
Make sure you check out of the list of artists who are participating, there is some fantastic work on their sites.
The Dirty Laundry Opening is September 5th.
The show runs from September 4th – 20th.
