UNIQLO, the Japanese apparel retailer is known for its affordable clothing and its collaboration with diverse artists and designers—to name a few, JW Anderson, Alexander Wang and Disney. Miranda July, a Los Angeles-based multi-talented film director, screenwriter, singer, actress, author and artist, launched collaborative T-shirts on March 18. The quirky t-shirts with prints like “EVERLASTING DOUBTS”, “NOT NOT FUNNY” and “IF YOU LIKE LIKE LIKE YOU’LL LOVE LOVE” are now available in stores in Canada and online.
July, known for her quirky works and her persona, defamiliarize things while showing partial understanding of objects and social constructs. There is a fundamental lack of understanding in traits which makes her works funny in an absurdist sense.
