Threadless picks of the week

$15/17, Threadless

This one makes me happy because it manages to overcome the potentially trite subject matter (simplified, cutesy characters shovelling teddy bears) by making it somewhat bizarre and dark, yet still not tipping over all the way into the trappings of the cute with a hint of perverse-subgenre that's so common these days. It's more perverse with a hint of cute, if that makes any sense. the key is the chained up hanging character, i guess. The gigantic print size is a huge plus, too. get it here


$15/17, Threadless
This was one of my favourite subs for the Tribeca film festival loves threadless competition, so i'm happy it won. it was one of the few subs that seemed to be created by someone with a real interest for film, and the surrealist cyberpunk/ 50's advertisement poster mash up look of the whole thing is a perfect match for the theme of the competition. it looks like the kind of thing the patrons of the local moldy eccentric arthouse film club would wear, so it's no wonder it got the prize.
