Rimbaud Tee
a poetic t-shirt

About
Arthur Rimbaud is, as some of you may know, a french poet. I really love his poems, that's why I wanted to make this t-shirt with his photo. He was young, all his poems were written between his 16th and 20th year. So I took a photo of him, reduced it to black and white shapes with photoshop, printed it, cut the paper where I wanted the dark parts to show, and painted it. (you may think it's complicated, but I don't like stencilling, so I do it that way) On the front of the t shirt is one of his most famous quotes, "je est un autre" which means "I is another one".
