Celebrate the intersection of ancient tradition and modern rhythm with the LOFI.AFRICA "ELEGBA" Champion Heritage Tee.
Limited collectable wearable art from the BrooklyNYC Art Gallery in Fort Greene. The centerpiece of this design is the official cover art for the hit single "ELEGBA" by Lo-Fi .AFRICA on BrooklyNYC Records. The artwork is rooted in the original painting, "The Crossroads," which debuted in 2012 at the "African Diaspora in Brooklyn" exhibition at the Brooklyn College Art Gallery (curated by Maria Rand).
Inspired by the Yoruba deity of communications, fortune, and the protector of the crossroads; known throughout the Diaspora as Elegbara, Eshu, Elegua, or Eleggua; this piece honors the energy that opens doors and guides journeys. Just as the song blends Traditional African music with soulful hip-hop, this tee blends historic Brooklyn fine art with iconic NYC streetwear.
Crafted on a heavy Champion cotton jersey, this tee offers a rugged, "Old School" feel that stands up to the city streets while maintaining the elegance of a gallery piece.
