“More Humanity” Upcycled Linen Shirt
This shirt was inspired by a moment of real connection—someone who walked into my booth in San Francisco and left a lasting impression. An emergency room nurse with incredible energy, he resonated deeply with the message: More Love. He asked me to add to a shirt he already owned—and even sent a few quilted hearts to include.
That exchange inspired a whole series. This is the last one of the series. This particular piece features hand-stitched hearts, my signature bluebird (a symbol of love and protection), and the swallow—representing hope, loyalty, and home. Across the shirt, the words "More Humanity" are boldly written like a tattoo—an urgent reminder in a world that deeply needs it.
Each shirt in this series is a wearable message—upcycled, soulful, and made with care.
