Apartments & Inflation screenprinted gold tee

Apartments & Inflation (2024)

Apartments & Inflation are a major topic. People are getting squeezed out by high rents and increasingly devalued dollars. The caduceus staff is an ancient “symbol of commerce” carried by Hermes in Ancient Greek & Egyptian mythology. The staff is intertwined with two serpents, but in this modern day case the design depicts New York City rats. The wings originally represented Hermes ability to fly between the heavens and earth. “Rats with wings” is New York speak for pigeons, but this sketch also represents the rats’ ability to fly between trash cans.

The burning money pile on top represents Inflation, and the fire escapes on the apartment building represent the need to escape to simpler times. This design pokes fun at a pretty serious issue, but the remedy will always be comedy. Laughing through trying times is helpful in overcoming them.
