We stumbled across Heroes of the World (H.O.W) via instagram and we instantly fell in love with the whole concept. H.O.W is a project created by two Canadian artists, Mark Williams and Joe Bonsu and their business partner Shawn Cuffie and involves the creation of superheroes from around the world, placing each superhero in a different country and emphasizing the importance of unity through diversity in their artwork.
“This work appeals to everyone and it instills a strong sense of pride for your heritage, but also touches strongly on the idea that diversity enriches our experiences and ultimately unites us,” explained the creators of the project.
Since 2005, Heroes of the World has evolved into a brand that represents different countries through the concept of the superhero. Whether it is on a t-shirt, a poster, or a hat, we make sure that the customer represents their country with the pride of a hero. Our sole purpose is to create a brand that will unify people from all walks of life. H.O.W are also available as t.shirts, posters and bags click here for more details
