Portable Cg X 6397 William Scott Muscle T In Multiple Colors [coSu9QWe]

Our latest round of Creative Growth graphic t-shirts celebrates the incredible talent of Creative Growth artists and the 50th anniversary of the Creative Growth!

The William Scott Muscle T features artwork by Creative Growth artist William Scott. A self-taught artist, William Scott’s practice imagines alternative realities that stem from a fundamental belief in the potential for positive human transformation. While deeply rooted in personal history, Scott’s paintings address wider questions of citizenship, community, and cultural memory. His portrait series of predominantly Black figures encompasses actors, musicians, politicians, and civil rights leaders, as well as self-portraits, family members, and women from the Baptist church he has attended since childhood. Frequently describing himself as an architect, Scott reinvents the social topography of gentrified San Francisco, which emerges as the utopian ‘Praise Frisco’ in works that combine architectural design with civic responsibility. The proposals for new buildings, neighborhoods, and community centers describe his compelling desire for a more equitable society. While Scott’s paintings are hopeful and sincere, they equally confront loss and contemplate ideas of renewal and rebirth. His long-standing ‘Inner Limits’ series takes the form of spaceships that are designed to resurrect the dead to start new lives and bring peace to the earth via ‘Wholesome Encounters.’

All proceeds from sales of this t-shirt will go back to Creative Growth. This is our way of participating in and supporting the Creative Growth community. We hope these t-shirts will impart to you the same sort of magic that the experience of Creative Growth has given back to us over the years.
