Cargo Cult Tee Design

Digital tomfoolery, using mashed-up stock splatters and a series of competing halftones for depth. The phrase is lifted from a Justice song.

Tee-shirt purchasing info is forthcoming. Also, more news about how Cargo Cult is going to own 2009.

WHACK PEOPLE!!!!!!

 

 

 

 

This was inspired by our brother JL:

"I had an idea for a project and I've already managed to get a few people to join in. It started as a challenge to the members of the Cargo Cult that was inspired by a recent walk down Fairmont Street NW on recycling day. I found a notebook that was in the trash, a little mistreated but otherwise undamaged. Inside the book was all kinds of things written by an apparently bi-lingual elementary student, practicing vocabulary. On a series of adjoining pages were the following words:

People Whack
People People
People People
People People
People

I can totally remember trying to remember how to spell "people" when I was in the 2nd grade.

SO HERE'S THE ASSIGNMENT ---

I've got some mini-chipboard pieces 4" x 6" and each Cargo Cult member is going to get three of them. Everyone will have to cover the board up with paper, or paint, or something, and then draw three people.

They can be doing anything. It can be just a face, or it can be just a bust, or it could be a whole person, or it could be a dismembered person.

Look out DC - Whack People - mini portaits - awesome artwork! "


Here are just a few of the people.. and they keep populating!!
