The Stone Roses/Arabic

Theme: Music

This Stone Roses design takes the defiant power of “I Am the Resurrection” and reframes it in a bold visual language that plays with identity, belief, and belonging. The phrase “I Am” — boxed in — becomes a personal declaration, a symbol of selfhood, ego, or even divinity depending on how you read it. But the word “Resurrection” breaks outside that box — as if to say rebirth, return, or revival can’t be contained. It's not just a statement; it’s a challenge. Maybe a personal one. Rendered in Manchester’s classic yellow and black, the design also speaks to the city’s evolving identity — a place where working-class grit meets spiritual swagger. By using Arabic typography for The Stone Roses, the design adds another layer: a reflection of the city's multicultural roots and tensions. It’s not just a cultural remix; it asks whether faith, identity, or even Britishness itself can be “resurrected” through reinvention. In a time when people argue about what’s being lost or taken, this piece suggests something else — that something new and powerful can emerge from the mix.
