ERD Hebrew Script Persona Long Sleeve T-Shirt — Black
Black heavyweight cotton. White print, front, back, and sleeves. ENFANTS RICHES DÉPRIMÉS woven label at the neck.
Front: A centered chest composition combining Hebrew script text with a large high-contrast photographic image.
Upper text: A line of Hebrew characters rendered in a bold, slightly stylized typeface — white on black, spanning the width of the image block below. The specific phrase is not fully legible at this resolution but carries the visual weight of a title, a declaration, or a lyric. The use of Hebrew script is unexpected within ERD’s typically French-language or English-language text program — functioning as a deliberate dislocation of linguistic expectation.
Center image: A large, high-contrast black-and-white photograph of two faces — two women (or the same woman twice) shown side by side or overlapping, rendered in a degraded, ghost-like quality. Both faces are pale, composed, slightly blank — glamorous but distant. Sunglasses partially visible on one figure. The faces merge at their edges through overexposure and double-exposure technique, creating a sense of identity doubling or dissolution. The image is reminiscent of Ingmar Bergman’s Persona (1966) — the merging of two faces into a single ambiguous identity.
Lower text: Two additional Hebrew characters or a short word — rendered in the same bold style, centered below the image, smaller than the upper line. Functions as a caption, a signature, or a closing phrase.
Sleeves: Both sleeves carry dense, multi-element print programs — running the full length of each sleeve.
- Left sleeve: A vertical collage strip — several small rectangular panels stacked, each containing a different image: an ERD text element (“ENFANTS” or similar in a thin serif), a starburst graphic, a small figurative scene, another text fragment. The overall effect is a sleeve-length zine strip.
- Right sleeve: A similar vertical strip — different panels, including what appears to be an ERD seal or emblem element and additional small scenes or text fragments.
Back: A centered, geometric composition in the middle of the back.
Center image: A cluster of six triangles arranged into a Star of David configuration — or more precisely, two overlapping equilateral triangles forming a hexagram. Each triangle contains a small figurative image — a different scene or portrait rendered in high-contrast white within the triangle’s boundary. The triangles are outlined in white, the interiors filled with the small images. The overall form reads simultaneously as a geometric abstraction, a religious symbol, and a display grid for six separate photographic fragments.
