HMT Rigorously Physics — a custom football shirt by artist John Cake

HMT Rigorously Physics — Football Shirt

£150.00

The triptych My late cat pooped in his tray and now I’m thinking about how empires crumble has some football related themes.
This football shirt amps up these themes.
A wearable partner piece to the red section of the triptych — HMP Rigorously Physics.
Worn by performers at exhibition previews where this triptych is shown.
Animates the work.
Physically brings scally culture into the gallery.

Pigments, their use as a status symbol and their role in colonialism.
A football empire — Empire of the Kop, and my Dad’s own little part in that.
The trickster — Hermes, as told by Homer.
Piles of rubble, gravel or rocks with model cannons buried in them.
On gaining power, the Medici family changed the colour of the Florentine fleur-de-lis from white to red.
The map-based concept behind god games.
The map is not the territory.

Features a Hillsborough Flames 97 tribute on the back.
