MTV and 55DSL unveiled a series of new ‘sensual’ adverts and announced a line of T-shirts featuring tongue-in-cheek designs to celebrate the pioneering spirit of both brands. Under this initiative, six international artists created themed visuals for the tees and five motion design studios took up the story in their short animated spots, which are being aired across 63 international MTV channels starting November 8.

The artists shared their visions of the theme by developing fresh and vibrant T-shirt designs dedicated to one of the physical senses—Alex Trochut explored touch, iLoveDust told about sight, James Roper turned to hearing, Tei ‘adopted’ ‘smell and Yué Wu made his visual story about taste. The collection also includes 55DSL’s special 5.5th «the less-explored human sense of intuition,» ‘studied’ by Zeloot. Each of the works was then used as a starting point for creating stunning short videos.
