Exploring Melbourne's T-shirt culture
Since 1990, T-shirt culture has boomed worldwide, but Melbourne really got started in the ‘80s. A joint collaboration between Just Another, NGV Studio and T-world, TEES: Exposing Melbourne’s T-shirt culture examines and dissects the last 25 years of the city’s graphics on cotton through the eyes of avid T-shirt collector Eddie Zammit.

500+ T-shirts from Melbourne artists, brands, designers
30 exclusive portrait photographs by Nicole Reed
