Sale is a pop-up market and guerilla store, where small scale and individual designers can show and sell their work to the public.

It is a unique chance to buy exclusive and handmade pieces directly from the designers.

Sale#4 will be themed around Slowness: The times we live in are fast.

Fast food, media soundbytes, speedy information networks, rapid, global flows of goods and services, an over-saturated and ever-growing commercial landscape…… Daily life has become a cacophony of experiences that disable our senses, disconnect us from one another and damage the environment.

But deep experience of the world - meaningful and revealing relationships with the people, places and things we interact with - requires many speeds of engagement, and especially the slower ones.

Slowness’ is a holistic approach to creative thinking, process and outcomes. It envisions positive human and environmental impacts of designed products, environments and systems, while constructively critiquing the processes and technologies of which they are born.

It celebrates local, close-mesh networks of people and industry, it preserves and draws upon our cultural diversity, and it relies on the open sharing of ideas and information to arrive at innovative solutions to contemporary challenges.

Slowness is not time-based. It doesn’t refer to how long it takes to make or do something, but rather describes the individual’s elevated state of awareness in the process of creation, the quality of its tangible outcomes and a richer experience for the community it engages.

Ashley Anderson:

“Ri-damn-diculous” is one result of my efforts to bring the random qualities of my sketchbook into my finished artwork.

Within this realm, so far I’m most pleased with a small body of work consisting of symmetrical, hand rendered images comprised of myriads of smaller images. These symmetrical drawings remind me of Mandalas or Thangkas and my friend Whitney has said that she views each individual drawing as a little god.

“Ri-damn-diculous” was originally conceived for an art show here in Atlanta, Georgia. I spent between 6 and 7 hours drawing it, using a board and clamps to hold the shirt still as I drew. I’ve lately been using hellmouths quite a bit in these drawings, but combining the hellmouths with other varieties of visual language, especially iconography and symbolism from old video games.

“mE.T.h” is based on the terrible joke of combining E.T. with, of course, methamphetamine. I drew this shirt in about an hour and a half, with my roommate providing the voice of E.T. all the while.

We were cracking up pretty bad laughing at some of the things this apparently very trashy and strung out E.T. might say. The best one was “Gov’ment’s not doing it’s job if it ain’t suckin’ mah dick!”. That’s my roommate; he’s a laugh riot!

Ambiguous originated in the mid nineties out of Southern California and began with an idea of producing quality product that reflected the lifestyle of a young board sport generation and a new movement.

Not wanting to jump into the standard sticker, hat, tee shirt company stereotype, the founder drew up sketches of jeans and had them produced, therefore Ambiguous was born. While other companies were focused on one image, Ambiguous became a poster for the undefined lifestyle that was at the soul of the board sports culture.

Ambiguous have gathered a devoted group of team riders from Skate and Snow, that individually reflect the company, right down to collaborating with the design team on individual designs for new lines.

From individuals such as Corey Smith, who is renowned in the Snowboard world not just for his riding but also for his contemporary pop style art.

To this day Ambiguous is still pushing the original ideals and following the same undefined path they originally started on.

Crazy Go Lucky’s first release since creating this division is the “Robots Are A Nerd’s Best Friend” Tee.

It’s a tee that was designed to appeal to fans of any giant robot Anime series or anyone who likes robots in general.

The tee is available for purchase at their own Crazy Go Lucky Online Store. Although it is the only the shirt they offer at the moment, they already have some designs created for a fall/winter line.

So stay tuned to see what else Crazy Go Lucky has up it’s sleeves.”

Lemar and Dauley tshirts line :

Made in east London, Without Backbones follows a strict dress code of black on black on of white, dynamic grey and a soupcon baby pink. True to form these boys reflect fresh humorous design with a slightly cynical view born out of spent youth in a provincial seaside town.

Barely there Boys vests, scoop neck jersey tops, oversized baggy t-shirts come crawling out from the shadows of the murky east end. Débuting an array of graphic styles featuring Boson the dead dog, super tremendous, acid party news spreads and quirky clothing elements which all work to pull the collection together.
