Ivory Skies are back with their latest collection of tees entitled ‘Purple Haze’. Take a trip through time and explore yet more ancient myths, lost talismans, and spiritual iconography from across the ages. Over the next few weeks IvorySkies.net will be revealing the stories behind the designs in all their glory. The new series of t-shirts include a Sacred Beetle, an absolutely beautiful Zodiac, Angel Horns, Good Vs. Evil, a Snake Dragon and the Wisdom of ancient Eastern spirituality.
No matter if you’re a history buff, a spiritual sort, a lover of the obscure, or none of the above I’m sure you’ll find their latest tees very tantalising. I have to admit I am all of the above and so I supposed I am biased. As an artist much of the process of conjuring new and original images to inspire debate and reflection come from a knowledge of art history, ancient cultures, and a fascination with anthropological research and esoteric texts. It’s useful learning about Man’s past, on the most basic level it provides a greater relative context for our present society. It seems rather ironic to me that here we are at possibly the end of yet another empire, whilst most of the population show little interest or indeed understanding of the rise and fall of those civilisations that have proceeded us. The human race lives by cycles of progression and regression, expansion and contraction, belief systems, fashions, governments, celebrities and icons all finally disappear into the past as new ones arise.
Much of this same thinking emanates from Ivory Skies’ collection, opening up a whole new and simultaneously ancient area of art and design, for a generation of t-shirt fans who know or or are intrigued to find out exactly where we stand in the history of mankind. Take a look at these top picks from the new Purple Haze series for a 101 in ancient mythological history:- read more
