Artist Notes from Rocket: ?When designing [this apparel], I was inspired by streetwear and Harajuku fashion, opting for a big graphic made of multiple interlocking parts. Influenced by the feel of an apartment complex, I drew inspiration from one of my favorite artists, Felicia Chiao, who often draws different boxes or rooms with characters interacting between them.

I?ve always loved apartment complexes because of the amount of different energies packed into one space. They?re an example of a community living with complex and sometimes conflicting needs. I also wanted to explore the dynamic of the birds in the Mockingbird logo.

The younger bird is about to take flight and looks up at the older bird who is already in the air. Because the older bird is demonstrating the freedom of flight, the younger mockingbird knows that they can do it too.?
