Daily Paper x David Alabo T-shirt capsule collection The Ghanaian artist designed a few illustrations inspired by tarot cards
For its Spring 2020 collection, the Dutch brand Daily Paper collaborated with Ghanaian artist David Alabo who created a series of abstract 3D illustrations inspired by tarot cards decorating five of the t-shirts in the collection. Alabo's artworks rework the iconography linked to the African continent in the light of a surrealist aesthetic that, in honour of the spirit of the tarot cards, hides behind each graphic detail a spiritual meaning. Here's how the artist talked about the collection:
Daily Paper is dedicated to promoting African culture by honoring the past and its influence on their vision of the future. They push the boundaries and challenge the perception of Africa in the fashion world which is what I aim to achieve in the art world too. It just makes sense that we work together and inspire each other.
All five t-shirts from the Daily Paper x David Alabo capsule collection are available online on the brand's official website at a retail price of 60€ each.
