T-Shirt - Atong Atem, Forage

Digitally printed cotton t-shirt from The Social Studio's collaboration with artist Atong Atem and Australian designer, Romance Was Born. Manufactured in The Social Studio’s Collingwood workshop, the capsule collection features Atem’s hyper-local artwork, born from the pandemic. It captures the stillness and quiet of her walks along the Merri Creek during the Melbourne lockdowns of 2020 and in it, she depicts a richly coloured, decaying natural world.

The Social Studio is a not-for-profit social enterprise, using fashion and creativity to create work and learning opportunities for refugee and new migrant communities.
