Street art is the very definition of disrupting corporate imagery. A signal, a call-to-action to rebel against the status quo, and to mark this down in public places is an art form within itself. OBEY has built itself upon these foundations, and as a result, the brain child of Shepard Fairey has become an icon to the cause.
In this continuous quest to find similar like-minded individuals, the brand has partnered up with street artist Fritilldea, as part of an initiative to introduce South East Asian street artists to the global stage. This then, also marks the first time the brand has collaborated with a local artist.
For this collection, Fritilldea combines his signature line-work with elements from his town of Gombak and the Malayan Keris, mixed together with OBEY’s silhouette.
Made in the USA, only 2 tees are available at the pop-up, and made exclusively available to us and our neighbours in Singapore. The OBEY Clothing X Fritilldea drops here over this weekend, 3 – 4 August at Rumah Tangsi, 12pm to 10pm.
