It's Like a Lotus at Night: Shyana Broughton (Kid and baby sizes)

SKU: K01SB

Original artwork created through collaboration with a real local childbearer. Give a child in your life this shirt, and connect them with the wisdom Shyana has gained. A lotus at night, Shyana's symbol for the human adventure of having children, expresses the beauty of darkness and the decision to be soft and gentle even if that means acting in defiance of one's circumstances.

 

*THIS IS FOR EVERYONE!* Just as the archetypal warrior hero inspires us all to strive and persevere, the archetypal childbearer can provide solidarity to all who face the murky and bewildering side of life.

These t-shirts are part of a larger art project anchored in large oil portraits of each childbearer alongside their symbol. It will be celebrated at Fitz Books with an opening party and a month-long exhibit through June, 2025.
