Care

Relaxed, garment-dyed heavyweight long sleeve with rib cuffs, in the same cotton as the unisex tee, 6.1 oz a square yard. Garment-dyed, so each shirt's color varies slightly.

Colors on screen are approximate, and light inks can look slightly tinted on red or maroon shirts. A faint square around the print right out of the package is the printer's pretreatment and washes out in the first wash.

Observe a little closer.

Nobody is in the chair, which is the point. The first version had an old survey marker in the grass, and it read like a headstone. I tried a brass survey disc too, and it looked like a manhole cover. The chair is the one that stayed.

Print artwork: an empty folding camp chair and a thermos in tall clay-orange grass, facing flat-topped desert buttes under a small full moon, in navy, slate blue, clay and khaki. The navy title above reads Department of Quiet Places. Below it, between two clay rules, reads Western Field Office, and under that in clay, Please leave them as found.
