Women's t-shirt

This women's giraffe t-shirt carries Ayana, who couldn't afford a telescope and built one out of two old eyeglass lenses and a plumbing pipe. Facing forward and dressed in red, a stubborn Sahel giraffe from my Animal Kinhood series.

The real species

West African giraffe.

Giraffa camelopardalis peralta

You don't need NASA to look up. You need a dark night and to know where to look.

Open savanna and wooded savanna of the Sahel and East Africa: from Niger and Chad to Ethiopia, Uganda and South Sudan. The West African subspecies lives exclusively in the Kouré area (Niger), in savanna with acacias, combretum and balanites, at altitudes of 0 to 2,000 m.

Two Lenses and a Plumbing Pipe

In her story, she couldn't afford a telescope, so she built one: two lenses from an old pair of glasses, a length of PVC plumbing pipe, tape, and months of patience on the roof at night, aligning it by trial and error until the Moon stopped wobbling and the craters came into view. That clumsy pipe was her first real instrument, and it still works before dawn on her rooftop in Niamey. She learned alone, with borrowed books, with no one ever giving her a course.

You Don't Need NASA

When someone marvels that she "knows about stars," or assumes it takes expensive equipment, Ayana lowers her voice, takes a long pause, and corrects them without arguing: you don't need NASA to look up; you need a dark night and to know where to look. She says it with no pose at all — she has her plumbing-pipe rig to prove it. Every clear night she writes down in a notebook what she saw, one line, then goes to bed. It's an everyday t-shirt; there's more of her in her biography.

§ 07 What 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.
  • Production normally takes 2-5 business days. Shipping adds 3 to 20 days depending on destination. Most orders arrive within 1-3 weeks total. Exact times depend on the production facility and your location.
  • 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.
  • AI is a tool within the creative process, not the process itself. Yago directs each portrait: researching the species, designing the character, and manually selecting and editing the result. The artistic decision is always human.
  • 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.
  • Yes. At checkout you can enter a different shipping address from billing. The package arrives white-label with no visible price, so the recipient will not see the cost.
  • Wash the t-shirt inside out, machine wash in cold water, and air dry. Avoid the tumble dryer and ironing directly over the print. Following these steps keeps colours vibrant for a long time.
  • Yes, we ship worldwide. Shipping costs vary by region and product type. You can see the exact cost at checkout before confirming your order.
