Youth t-shirt

Youth elephant t-shirt with Bagus, a herbalist from my Animal Kinhood series, where the animals dress and live like people. Bagus is a makhna elephant, tuskless, who runs a stall of plant remedies in the high market of Liwa, in Sumatra, wearing his mustard corduroy shirt even though nobody's expecting him. He's got a line he repeats to anyone who'll listen: there's no such thing as a weed, just an herb you haven't found the use for yet.

The real species

Asian elephant.

Elephas maximus

There's no such thing as a weed. Just an herb you haven't found the use for yet.

Tropical forests and grasslands of South and Southeast Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Sumatra and Borneo, and southern China); the Sumatran branch lives in the lowland forests and the slopes of the Bukit Barisan mountains.

Nothing Goes to Waste, Everything Has Its Use

On the t-shirt, Bagus has the calm of someone unbothered by anything: a huge, tuskless elephant, wearing the mustard corduroy shirt and the brown gentleman's waistcoat. His motto isn't just about plants. "There's no such thing as a weed, just an herb you haven't found the use for yet" applies to young people too: nobody's extra, everyone has their moment and their purpose, even if it isn't obvious at first. Printed on a t-shirt, the line takes it to the street.

The One Who Goes Off Alone for a Few Days

Bagus is one of those males who left the herd. As a young one he started not being able to sit still in the group: he'd drift off, come back, drift off again, with a restlessness he couldn't name. It still comes over him every so often. He gets short-tempered, shuts up the stall and climbs the mountain, alone, until it passes. Who, when young, hasn't needed to get lost for a few days to come back whole? He comes down calmer and, by the next morning, he's back at the counter.

§ 07What people ask.08 · about POD
  • Each product is made to order when you place your purchase. There is no pre-made stock or overproduction. A specialised production partner prints, cuts, and prepares it specifically for you.
  • It depends on two things: which piece it is and where it goes. Posters, the mug, the tote and the backpack ship from Europe: 4-7 business days to Europe, 2-4 to the UK, 2-6 to the USA and Canada, 6-22 to the rest of the world. T-shirts and the sweatshirt are made in the United States, so they take considerably longer to reach Europe: 9-25 business days, 7-10 to the UK, 4-10 to the USA and Canada, 5-17 to the rest of the world. Every figure already includes making the piece, since each one is produced when you order it. You will see the exact date for your shipment at checkout.
  • Contact us at mail@yagopartal.com with your order number and clear photos of the damage (include packaging). We will review your case and offer a solution as soon as possible, either replacement or refund.
  • Open editions (main shop) are on-demand products with no copy limit. Limited editions (the Editions section of the shop) have controlled numbering and premium finishes with gallery-grade materials.
  • Yago Partal is a visual artist and photographer from Barcelona known for Zoo Portraits (2013), a project that brought his work to international media. Animal Kinhood is the evolution of that artistic exploration.
  • Men's t-shirts range from XS to 5XL. Women's, kids', and youth sizes have specific ranges. Check the size guide on each product page for exact measurements in cm and inches.
  • Yes. You have 14 calendar days to withdraw, with no need to give a reason (TRLGDCU arts. 102-108). Return the product unused and in its original condition; return shipping is at your expense and any loss of value from handling beyond inspection is deducted (art. 108.2). Your statutory guarantee of conformity also remains fully in force: any product arriving damaged or with a defect is replaced or refunded at no cost. Contact us at mail@yagopartal.com.
  • Check the size guide in each product tab. Measure a t-shirt that fits you well and compare with the length and width measurements. The t-shirts have a regular fit, neither slim nor oversized.
