Recognizing that graffiti art often only lasts a few days or weeks, company founder Sarah James captures striking images from in and around Jersey City to celebrate outsider art and vibrant cultural spaces through her line of printed long-sleeve t-shirts.
According to research from the University of Santa Cruz, graffiti is increasingly recognized as an art form that expresses an artist’s cultural identity, while also offering an outlet for social connection, creativity, and collective empowerment. By capturing the work of local Jersey City graffiti artists, Sarah James preserves images of colorful, meaningful street art pieces for your enjoyment, while highlighting creativity and diversity in New Jersey.
Sarah walks through the streets of Jersey City, often early in the morning, to find graffiti art that is both skillful and meaningful. One example is an image of two women in profile, with flowers in their hair against a richly textured background, captured on a wall next to railroad tracks on the hill between Jersey City and Hoboken. “When I saw this image I immediately loved it,” says Sarah. “It conveys a feeling of everyday women, two friends going about their daily activities, looking like they have agency and business to take care of.”
For Sarah, the image reflects the beauty and strength of female friendship, and her printed T-shirts showcasing the graffiti piece are a celebration of New Jersey’s distinct energy.
The t-shirts with the image of the two Jersey City women are made from 100% cotton and are available for a limited time. You can choose from different colors, including green, pink, purple, blue, and red, as well as various sizes to suit your body type.
