I can humbly say that I am pleased to have been chosen among the ten winners of this contest hosted by
Dazed and Confused To celebrate Reiss’s launch of their new 1971 range, DazedDigital launched a t-shirt design competition that called for interpretations of the brief ‘1971’. We received over 600 entries and over 30,000 votes were placed. From the top ten that garnered the most amount of votes, both Reiss and Dazed had the tough decision of choosing two designs that would subsequently be printed on a women's and menswear tee.

Word vs. image 7. Symbolic vs. literal 8. Landscape vs. portrait 9. Positive vs. negative 10. Anarchy vs. order 11. Digital vs. analogue 12. Foreground vs. background 13. Original vs. copy .Instead of settling for just one side of the dichotomy, the designers will incorporate both into their work and use them as creative fuel, with no restrictions on medium or scale.
