EAT THE RICH Embroidered Protest Towel

Part of The Protest Collection

This piece belongs to The Protest Collection by West & Remount. It is a body of work focused on public accountability, visual dissent, and collective resistance.

The EAT THE RICH towel uses satire to highlight wealth inequality and systems of excess. It is designed to be seen, read, and understood immediately.

This is protest as design. It is made to communicate a message clearly and directly.

Satire, Symbolism, and Meaning

The design features a caterpillar-inspired character stitched in greens, oranges, and golds. It sits above bold embroidered text that reads “EAT THE RICH.”

The phrase is rendered in glow-in-the-dark thread for visibility in low light. This reflects the idea that protest does not only exist in daylight.

The message is symbolic and critical of systems where wealth is concentrated at the top while others struggle.

Designed for Visibility and Use

This towel is made to be multifunctional and adaptable. It is designed for both display and practical use.

It can be carried as a protest sign, styled as an accessory, or used as a functional towel. It can also be hung as wall art when not in use.

It is built to move between statement piece and everyday object.

Durable Materials with Intentional Design

This towel is made with a velour front and terry cloth back. It is soft, absorbent, and reusable.

It includes fringe edges for added texture and visual detail. The embroidery is designed to last through repeated use.

Available colors include orange, green, and dusty blue.

A Message About Power and People

This design reimagines a familiar story of endless consumption. Instead of unchecked excess, it highlights collective awareness and resistance.

It reflects the idea that systems only continue when people accept them. History shows change happens when that acceptance ends.

This towel exists to make that message visible and direct.
