The T-Shirt Issue’s Muybridge Pt_2 Puts a Bird on MAD’s “Out of Hand” Exhibit
Posted in: Digital Fabrication
The jersey T is classic, but a bit boring. The T-Shirt Issue has once again upped the traditional T’s drama with a touch of 3D rendering and design. We chatted with the T-Shirt Issue back in 2011 when they were looking to fund a Kickstarter campaign to launch a line of clothing basics that broke all rules when it came to seams. Following the successfully-funded crowdfunding campaign, the group has a series titled “Muybridge Pt_2,” on view now at “Out of Hand: Materializing the Postdigital” exhibition in NYC, alongside some 120 other pieces that illustrate the role of digital fabrication in contemporary art, architecture and design.
The name of the collection, of course, refers to the seminal photographer; Hande Akcayli, Creative Director at the T-Shirt Issue elaborates:
We were fascinated by the idea of translating movements into garments. The study leans on Eadweard Muybdridge’s photography work in the late 1800s, with which he pioneered in the field of capturing animal and human motion. The Muybridge series is a digital approach to transporting classic dynamics onto standalone jersey garments and capturing temporal change in 3D.
