Pattern & Memory x Usama Siddiqui: A Limited-Edition Scoundrel Tour Collaboration

Some projects are special because of what they represent, and this was certainly one of them.

For Usama Siddiqui's Scoundrel Tour, I had the opportunity to create an exclusive t-shirt for his San Francisco show, his biggest performance to date and his first-ever theatre show.

The creative brief was to bring together two things: the city of San Francisco and something uniquely personal to Usama. Inspired by his Bangladeshi roots, I reimagined iconic San Francisco landmarks through the visual language of Nakshi Kantha, the traditional Bangladeshi embroidery art known for its intricate storytelling motifs and rich textile heritage.

The result was a design that brought two worlds together: familiar San Francisco landmarks interpreted through a distinctly Bangladeshi artistic lens. A celebration of place, heritage, and the stories that connect us to both.

Seeing the shirt resonate with audiences was incredibly rewarding. The limited-edition design came close to selling out at the show, with only a handful remaining, and we continued receiving inquiries from people hoping to get their hands on one afterward.

This collaboration was a huge milestone for Pattern & Memory and something I'm incredibly proud to have been part of.
