Manifesting Dreams Tee - Onyx

Revealed to David Wabeladio Payi in a dream during the 1970s, Mandombe was created to be a phonetic writing system that would unite African people through a single writing system.  Beyond its apparent visual beauty, the script itself is based on concrete geometrical principles.  Consonants and vowels turn at 45 and 90 degree angles on a plane, but are linked to one another by rotating the last vector of each letter through three-dimensional space.  Accordingly, it has been argued that this writing system was deliberately designed to reflect the belief systems, symbols and cosmography of broader Bantu-Kongo culture, which incorporate similar geometric principles. 

In celebration of this script and its dream of unification, our Manifesting Dreams Tee reads “UNKNOWN UNION” across the back shoulder and arms in English and across the front chest and arms in Mandombe.  Taking a detour from the classic t-shirt, our raw edge unisex tee focuses on comfort with clean lines and minimalist silhouette.
