T-Shirt #025 by Bolade Banjo
T-Shirt #025 in the ‘DoBeDo Photographers Series’ is by Bolade Banjo. His individually hand tie-dyed shirts extend from Banjo's darkroom paintings and sculptural work. Rather than using light to create colour, he uses a range of tie-dye processes to create these one-off T-Shirts.
“Experimentation is a process at the core of my practice... it's come full circle from 2D darkroom images to 3D sculptures and now to a wearable fabric-based body of work... Ready to wear ‘For the Good Times in 2020” - Bolade Banjo
Printed on the reverse of each long-sleeved T-shirt is one of two versions of Banjo’s darkroom paintings. It also comes with a handmade bouncy ball; a miniature version of his larger sculptures.
DoBeDo's 'Photographers T-Shirt Series' started in 2009 and has included over thirty photographers over the last fourteen years. T-Shirts are also available via our 'Photographers T-Shirt Series Subscription.'
