Women's fluid crew-neck T-shirt - ETXEA

"Etxea" means house in Basque. This is a highly problematic issue in our beautiful region: having a home is becoming a dream as well as a necessity, too often inaccessible due to overtourism and real estate speculation.

On the doors of houses in the Basque Country, tradition dictates hanging an "eguzkilore" to protect against the evil eye.

But today, in my design, it is the "sun flower" dreaming of her "Etxea", imagined by a little boy affected by this issue at that time.

A motif at its heart to express my attachment to this subject: an S.O.S. represented by its Morse code . . . _ _ . . . to begin a dialogue that is both universal and filled with hope for tomorrow.

In 2022, we celebrated the 60th anniversary of the smiley symbol, an anti-gloom element of pop culture that had taken over our daily lives.
