And so all the shirts fell silent. Even the loudest ones sat on the shoulders and remained silent. We suffocated them. Let’s take them out again, to the city for an exhibition and to friends before it’s too late. The textile installation The Silence of the Shirts is an upgrade of the Japanese Shirt project, in which students researched Japanese modelations and created their victims. 

They are born of whiteness and die in whiteness again. Innocent.


Iz beline so se rodile in v belini zopet umirajo. Nedolžne.
