till death we do art

01

On Something is an art project that wears like a t-shirt. Every piece starts as a drawing — a mark, a line, a joke that took itself seriously for a second — and ends up on cotton because cotton is the most democratic gallery in the world and the only one that comes home with you. We call them artifacts, not products — because a product is something you sell, and an artifact is something that survives.

02

It's all one hand. The artwork, the marks, and the symbol on the chest all come from the same place — Chris Arvan. Nothing here is designed by committee or focus-grouped into safety. A shirt you can't quite explain is doing one job: marking the people who were paying attention.

03

Till death we do art is the whole policy. Not a slogan we landed on — a vow we couldn't get out of. The shirts are the receipts. Wear one and you're not buying merch — you're holding a piece of the argument that the work mattered.
