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: Originating in Scotland as ""tartan,"" we now call this pattern of crisscrossed lines ""Plaid."" Growing up in Southern California during the '80s and '90s, plaid beach volleyball shorts were always in our purview, thanks to labels like Mossimo and Stüssy. When we elevated to making cut-n-sew apparel like button-ups in the early 2000s, plaids made their way into our language as a nod to both the surf culture of the West Coast and Polo's influence on the East. In fact, every plaid speaks to a different subculture. Buffalo plaids were woven into the early New York hip-hop lumberjacks. Shadow plaids on swap meet Pendletons. And The Hundreds plaids, for all.
