Corbin Shaw collaborates with Fred Perry
17 Apr 2024
This month (April 2024), Jealous artist and collaborator Corbin Shaw announced his collaboration with Fred Perry.
The artist collaborated with the clothing brand to create two limited edition T-Shirts 'Dear Sheffield' and 'Leavers'.
The first shirt: 'Dear Sheffield' is a love letter to Shaw's hometown of Sheffield, with a poem written on the reverse of the t-shirt:
I want you to know
you hold my heart
hold it high
highstreet dreams
streets in the sky
heaven is a hole in the road
for you and I.
'Leavers' references a coming of age. Signed in the many different hands of a school leaver, the t-shirt brings up a sense of nostalgia that Brits far and wide would relate to.
Alongside the t-shirt release, Shaw and Fred Perry released a short film, which you can view below. The video explores spaces in and around Sheffield which evoke nostalgia for the artist. In his own words [Shaw] 'wanted to create a modern-day Billy Elliot and tap into a nostalgia that was [his] own'.
