T Shirt with Embroidery, 2025
An authentic Argos T-shirt, embroidered with the phrase “Shop Whore” in pink thread, forms a companion piece to the poem I Wanna Work in Argos (2024). The work extends the character developed in the poem, who reclaims a derogatory nickname and repositions it as a title of authority. By embedding the phrase into the fabric of an official garment, the piece explores how language and uniform can both mark and subvert identity. What might signify insult is rearticulated as self-definition, transforming the workplace into a stage for agency, satire, and empowerment.
All original works come with a signed Certificate of Authenticity.
