"We want to celebrate female artists and how their discourse is voiced through their artistic and creative practices.”

Introducing the prolific artist who became the first female urban T-shirt designer from Aberdeen, Angela Thouless. While her urban T-shirt label Tribe All is taking the fashion industry by storm, it was the artistic brilliance found in the artwork of Founder Angela Thouless that inspired the launch of her T-shirt label, Tribe All. Angela Thouless is one of Aberdeen’s finest creative talents - having her work shown and sold around the world, yet this didn’t come easy.   

“After a lot of rejection, my work titled ‘Watch Your Back’ was exhibited at the Royal Scottish Academy, I was fortunate enough to sell this painting, which gave me the courage to keep going,” says Founder Angela Thouless. Angela’s work is characterised by a unique portrayal of city scapes and cultures: “My style is influenced by the large-scale work by German expressionists such as Max Beckmann. I sought out a way to put my own twist on it, much like a cameo, I place myself in all my paintings and by doing so making it truly mine.”
