TAMARA TAM-CRUICKSHANK

TAMARA TAM-CRUICKSHANK: TROINIDAD AND TOBAGO

“Think Roots”

The roots are stemming from the mind, thereby allowing connectivity to everything else within. THINK ROOTS is about a yearning for and an active searching for the source, the Self. It represents that point in the cyclic activity of natural life when we want to return to ourselves, after having looked far and wide for things outside us to fill a seemingly infinite void. http://in2artltd.com/2009-carnivalexh-1.html

SEON THOMPSON

SEON THOMPSON: TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO

"Your Days Are Numbered”

We continue to misuse our non- renewable resources everyday without any consideration of conservation. This design uses the simple words of ‘Your Days Are Numbered’ to sensitize the viewer of the impending outcome of a dyeing world. www.copybookpage.blogspot.com

RAIMI GBADAMOSI

RAIMI GBADAMOSI: LONDON

“The Republic”

The t-shirts are a representation of the complex racial and national relationships people have. The three t-shirts actually form one garment, the idea is that everyone will have all three and balance out their own relationships formed before they were aware. The t-shirts rely on ideas from The Republic (www.the-republic.net).
