Bomb Story: Sophie Sturdevant is a Denver-born and Chicago-based artist, who has developed a style over her career called SuperStacked. Sophie has a traditional background, but works in both physical and digital spaces. Regardless of media, her work and process play on a ""museum and mayhem” juxtaposition, leveraging line work and stippling to tell visual stories of womanhood — which is, like her work, complicated, abstract, and emotionally overwhelming. Sophie Sturdevant is one of two NFT-related artists that we collaborated with exclusively for the Adam Bomb Squad drop.| Background Story: In the early 2000s, all-over-prints reigned supreme in independent streetwear. The trend was a response to the boring solids and understated color-blocking of the dominant skate and urban market. It also followed the footsteps of Nigo's A Bathing Ape camos. Smaller, T-shirt-based brands like ours tapped into the ancient screen-printing techniques of roller-printing, oversized screens, and belt-printing to execute messy patterns over seams, collars, and hemlines. Bobby designed Pins as a tribute to punk rock safety-pinned patches. Jay Z came out of retirement for his Hangar Tour that year, and he wore the Pins hoodie onstage. That photo headlined MTV, CNN, and USA Today. It wasn't long before fast-fashion retailer Forever 21 and other sharks jumped on the pattern, turning it into a quick-lived moment in the marketplace.
