This is a wall hanging sculpture made of clear polyester resin. Across the chest is a clear decal that reads “I would die tonight for my beliefs”. It’s a transparent copy of an actual shirt I have from the hardcore band ‘No Innocent Victim’.

I like the shirt a lot but I wouldn’t wear it as much as other shirts I had. I realized I was actually a little embarrassed to wear it in public. This led to another realization. That deep down I was ashamed of my beliefs and wanted to keep them hidden. No one should be ashamed of their beliefs.
