Hot on the heels of Adam "Ape Lad" Koford's Unizilla T-shirt comes this piece of formal attire: Skullcap. Designed by Sarina Frauenfelder, the design represents the relationship between the universality of myth and life as performance. With influences as diverse as Rousseau and Roy Lichtenstein, new variations are synthesized from both mundane and transcendent meanings. What starts out as triumph soon becomes finessed into a cacophony of power, leaving only a sense of unreality and the chance of a new beginning. As shifting forms become undefined through wavering derivatives, the viewer is left with a glimpse of the corners of our culture. (For the full artist's statement, please click here.)

    Why is there no skullcap with an embroidered picture of a zombie wearing a BoingBoing Tshirt? Y’know, for symmetry.
