About the Project:
Talking Back: A presentation of T-Shirt Messages and the Bodies Who Wear Them
Talking Back explores the dynamics of personal expression that celebrates
the unique personal essence of t-shirt culture and its potential to convey passion
to its wearer. Whether bought or hand-made, each represents an extension of self
that each subject wishes you to know or believe about them or to provoke a thought
or opinion.
