Women's t-shirt

On this women's praying mantis t-shirt, Bruno faces forward, in his lime-green jacket, the silver chain and those big eyes: a mantis who learned as a kid that staying still isn't giving up. He's a sound engineer in Marseille, from my Animal Kinhood series.

The real species

Praying mantis.

Mantis religiosa

Good sound is invisible. If the audience notices me, something's gone wrong.

Meadows, Mediterranean scrubland, field edges and sunny peri-urban zones from southern Europe to northern Africa and western Asia; successfully introduced to North America since 1899.

The Garden of Lizards

The principle went back much further, to a garden. At eight, at his grandmother's house, Bruno discovered that if he stayed absolutely still, lizards would climb onto his feet. Forty minutes without moving; he says an hour, he exaggerates. He didn't understand it in words, but he understood something: that staying still is a way of letting the world come closer. That was his first method, and it's lasted him a lifetime.

A Mantis Who Waits

On the t-shirt you're wearing that gesture: a mantis facing forward, the lime jacket, the still gaze. A fact about the species, outside the image: the mantis can stay perfectly motionless for a good while, waiting without hurry for the exact right moment. Bruno does the same at every sound check. It's an everyday garment with a bug that nothing rattles; if you like him, there's more of him in his biography and more t-shirts from the series in the store.
