Inspired by Cave's thought-provoking public artwork of the same name along with his immersive Soundsuit sculptures, the tote is rendered in his vibrant mixed-media prints designed in collaboration with Bob Faust, and subvert the colloquial phrase to explore the fragility of truth in our society.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n      \n    \n  \n\n    \n      \n\n        \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n    \n      \n    \n  \n  \n  \n  \n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n  Nick Cave first came to prominence almost 20 years ago with the display of his now iconic Soundsuits, which are elaborate costumes-as-works-of-art. Made of a myriad of discarded materials, they are designed to be worn and moved in, concealing the wearer's race, gender, and age. Since then he has become known internationally for the Soundsuits, as well as for his ritualistic public performance projects and flamboyant installations consisting of literally thousands of ornamental items.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n  \n    \n      \n    \n  \n  \n  \n  \n\n\n\n\n  \n    \n      \n\n  \n\"We are thrilled to be an MZ Wallace collaborator because the product is of extraordinary quality.
