I Love Ugly presents their Shroom 5-Panel Cap, which is made of imported Italian fabric for the body of the cap. The cap print features simplistic water colour renderings of mushrooms. Each cap will be individual due to the variance of the fabric pattern.

As a really cool touch, each cap comes with a custom tag and a signed art print by Nadeesha Godamunne.

These will sell out very quickly. They’re available now for $115 (ouch) via I Love Ugly.

D Young V’s “Nun of War”

Written by . Filed under Art. Tagged , , . No comments.

Not a tee, but I think this is too cool not to share.

fiftyseven-thirtythree is now selling D Young V’s “Nun of War” piece, which is a 18″X24″, two color hand screen print. Prints are limited to 50 and each is signed.

The woman’s face presented in this print is based on an image D Young V found completely at random. Although her meaning is somewhat unknown in real life, she has taken on an iconic presence (think Obama, Che Guevara, Martin Luther Jr., Mother Theresa) in the post-apocalyptic narrative created by the art of D Young V. The “Nun of War” is a mysterious woman, who continues to find her way into his artwork and has been martyrized by many.

To get even more background on the piece, watch the video below.

“Nun of War” is available for $50 via fiftyseven-thirtythree.
