My newest print is the word “feminist” emphasized with each syllable. I chose to print the word this way because I felt that just having “feminist” written on a shirt as it is would be too bland and obvious. I like the idea of drawing attention to a statement (as I did by using the f-word on the last print), and by emphasizing each syllable, the word pops out more when a viewer tries to read it, and even more so when read aloud.

To add on to the attraction of the statement, most of the prints are black lettering on a vibrant hot pink shirt. Because the colour pink is associated with femininity, which is often a sign of weakness in the male dominated society, wearing a pink shirt that reads “feminist” can also be portrayed as a strong reclamation of the female gender.
