(throw)back tee

An archival scrawl, inscribed on Aidan’s arm.

the design · te whakaaro

This is the wordmark form of land back that started the whole thing. An archivist’s recording of land back’s use in Australia as early as the 1890s. This tee is special because it carries a transcription that, to us, helped steer us to a desire for deeper engagement towards a way of thinking that challenges capitalist-colonial normalcy.
