T-Shirt Revolution” workshop | TURFU Festival

Free, registration required. Fashion, and T-shirts in particular, have always been a popular means of expression. Direct and visible, worn in the street, at concerts or demonstrations, they allow people to assert their freedom of thought, to make demands, to provoke, to rally. This workshop will be an opportunity to (re)discover these emblematic slogans and T-shirts, to understand their significance... and then to imagine together the one that will change the world tomorrow. A time for collective creation to invent, debate and make your own revolutionary T-shirt (remember to bring a T-shirt that you can spice up!). Because an idea can also be worn on the chest.

From the faces of Che Guevara to feminist, anti-racist or punk slogans, not forgetting "Make love, not war", "Black Lives Matter" or the subversive messages of pop and underground culture, some T-shirts have become veritable symbols of cultural, political or intellectual revolutions. They have marked eras, carried struggles and circulated ideas far beyond words.

What makes a slogan an era-defining statement? Does a slogan have to be simple, provocative, poetic or radical to be effective? Who speaks when you wear a message on your T-shirt: the individual, the collective, the movement? Can you defend a just cause on a T-shirt? What issues or messages would we like to see carried in the streets today? These are just some of the questions that the participants will be invited to debate together, while imagining what future slogans to stick on a T-shirt to bring about a desirable future.
