Local San Francisco artist gemvsgem teamed up with retailer Invisible Stripes on a t-shirt slated to release on January 27th. Offering their own spin on the Cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland, the stripes of cat are printed with solar ink. While indoors, the cat is without any stripes, but exposure to UV light results in the cats stripes appearing. This effectively keeps consistent with the original Disney story and the invisible cat.
