‘Art is Our Weapon’ — Shirin Neshat Quote Tee | Wear Words Typographic Statement Tee — Oversized Tee

“Art is our weapon. Culture is a form of resistance.” In her 2010 TED talk “Art in Exile,” Shirin Neshat spoke as an Iranian artist barred from returning home — her Women of Allah photographs, Persian calligraphy inked across veiled faces, had made her a target of the state she fled. From that exile, culture looks less like entertainment than like armament: for an artist under censorship, making the work is how the resistance gets carried.

**AS Colour 5082 “Faded Bone” — Oversized Tee (Cream finish).** 100% carded cotton, heavyweight 240 gsm, garment-dyed — each tee fades a little differently, so no two are identical. Oversized, boxy relaxed fit, dropped shoulders, wide twin-stitched ribbed neck, side-seamed, pre-shrunk (size down for a less roomy look). Care: machine wash cold inside-out with like colors, do NOT bleach, do NOT tumble dry (line dry in the shade to protect the garment dye), cool iron inside-out (never iron the print).
