Start Again Immortal Jellyfish Heavyweight Tee · Big Print

One line. It ends where it started.

An immortal jellyfish drawn as a single closed line that crosses the bell, runs the length of every tentacle and comes back to where it began, printed big on the front with no words. The line changes colour as it goes, so the whole jellyfish shimmers.

The motto stays off the shirt, here with its footnote: Start Again.¹

¹ Turritopsis dohrnii medusae can turn back into polyps, even after reaching sexual maturity: the first animal found to do this. Piraino et al., Biol. Bull., 1996

Fig. 11 in The Small Print, Deep Planet’s series of animals drawn from their own true stories. For anyone starting over.

About the print

• The drawing alone, 12 in tall, centred on the front. No motto or footnote on the shirt.
• Shimmer inks: every mark printed in its own colour, flowing along the animal, and drawn a little heavier so it reads from across the room.
• Garment-dyed, so each shirt's colour varies a little.
• Printed to order by Printful, direct to garment.
