Every Revolution (Franz Kafka) - Fair Wear - Unisex Organic T-Shirt - FREE DELIVERY

This design is celebrating radical author Franz Kafka, who was born in Prague on 3 July 1883 in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Though his work is often reduced to abstract philosophical expressions of existential despair, his writing was also often a scathing critique of capitalist society and state bureaucracies informed by his contact with radical political groups. This is also reflected in this month's artwork, which is inspired by two of Kafka's best-known works, "The Metarmorphosis" and "The Trial". In "The Metarmorphosis" Kafka reflects on the alienation and dehumanization inherent in capitalist societies, particularly those shaped by the Industrial Revolution. It tells the story of salesman Gregor Samsa, who wakes to find himself inexplicably transformed into a huge insect and struggles to adjust to this condition, as does his family. "The Trial" is a powerful critique of inhumane bureaucracy and its dehumanizing effects on individuals. The novel portrays a nightmarish legal system where the protagonist, Josef K., is arrested for an unknown crime and subjected to a legal process characterized by absurdity, opacity, and powerlessness.

This design is special because it has been co-designed by two tattoo artists, Ysa Shrapnel based in Bremen, and Felix Soerlix based in Hannover.
