This wearable art collaboration connects British illustrator Charly Clements with a group of students from Duduk Atas Elementary School in Senggigi, Lombok.

Known for her empowering illustrations and uplifting tone, she instantly connected with the children’s unfiltered creativity — their ability to draw without hesitation or self-doubt. Together they created wearable art that celebrates the power of play, showing that the purest form of creativity begins when you stop overthinking and start feeling.

Charly Clements about her collab

Why Charly Clements wanted to design a Face This T-shirt

I just loved what your charity stood for. I’ve lived in Indonesia for a few months in 2017 so I felt even more of a connection to the cause. I’ve also worked with children in the past, and I used art and play as a way for them to express themselves, so it felt like the perfect collaboration.

I saw happiness. Art has always been a kind of therapy for me so I just hope these kids never stop drawing, because the possibilities are endless.

How Charly Clements designed his Face This T-shirt

I used the main concept of mountains and trees from file 15, the face from file 21 and the airplane from file 14 . I loved the idea of pulling elements from different kids’ drawings and bringing them all together to tell a story.
