Look again: Peace is dripping into the NYC Skyline
We are excited for this re-release of one of our earliest and most popular designs, "Peace NYC." First released in 2010, back when Brett (the founder and designer of NY State of Mind) was selling his original tees on a flimsy folding table in the streets of NYC.
Many people don’t know that, although it is illegal to sell general merchandise on the streets of NYC without the proper license (which is only given to military veterans), there is a loophole in the law that allows vendors to sell merchandise if it qualifies as art (it cannot have any function other than aesthetics), literature, religious paraphernalia, or if it makes a political statement. Armed with that knowledge, Brett was determined to create a design that:
Makes a political statement (a peace sign qualifies as political).
Is related to NYC (the drips create the NYC skyline).
Is not too controversial (who doesn’t want peace?).
Looks cool (need I say more?).
After months of obsessively perfecting the dripping skyline—mission accomplished! Brett got to work silk-screening in his Brooklyn art studio (a.k.a. his living room) and hit the streets, selling this design for years until he decided to retire it to make room for the many new designs he had created.
Now, after 10 years (and a whole lot of chaos in the world and in the streets of NYC), it feels like the right time to once again release the peace!
Show your love for peace, NYC, and great design with this timeless, iconic graphic.
