Small World Tees
Small World Tees involved cataloguing donated t-shirts by zip code to create community profiles from the data contained in each garment. Each t-shirt was assessed and added to a database recording information such as where it was made, what it was made out of, color, size, and any graphics they may contain.
Small World Tees launched during ArtPrize9 in 2017 at The City Water Building curated by the Richard App Gallery, The donated t-shirts were inventoried, folded, and packaged on-site during scheduled live performances. The t-shirts were displayed alphabetically by country of origin at the Small World Tees fReETAIL Shop. At the end of the exhibition visitors were each able to take one re-branded t-shirt home with them in exchange for their zipcode. The resulting inventory information is presented online at smallworldtees.com allowing visitors to view results by postal code. |
