What is striking about Mauro’s design is how such a macabre concept has been so beautifully rendered. It’s exotic, glamorous, and a world away from the style most other artists would use to depict such a gory theme. It's a triumphant perversion of mise-en-scene.

Noodle Surprise is also a text-book example of how to incorporate the colour of the tee into the art: the orange T-shirt haemorrhages through the design. (We’re exceedingly keen on this tactic cos, not only does it look ace, it also saves us cash on the printing!)

Placement factoid: the design has been placed on the left breast for the fellers. This way it remains small enough to fit comfortably on the girls’ T-shirts.
