During Art Basel Miami Beach this year, the Savannah College of Art & Design and the SCAD Museum of Art will present an exhibition of fashion, film, and painting that will include custom jumpsuits designed by Andre 3000 for Outkast's 2014 reunion tour.

"i feel ya: SCAD + André 3000 Benjamin" will open on Dec. 3 at Mana Miami and run through Dec. 13. The exhibition will be the first time that all 47 jumpsuits will be shown in the same place, each with a phrase across the chest, including "can one rest in peace and violence?" and "children of the cornbread." The exhibition will also feature works by painter Jimmy O’Neal and filmmaker Greg Brunkalla, including a commissioned film titled Trumpets that, according to the press release, "uses the thoughts and expressions on the jumpsuits as a creative point of departure to build a broader conversation about language and context."
SCAD President and Founder Paula Wallace says, "This exhibition is a collaboration in the truest sense—André’s singular style is illuminated by the brilliant work of SCAD alumni artists." André says that displaying the collection with his "longtime collaborative partners at SCAD" is the perfect fit, adding, "The diverse group of people that come to Miami for Art Basel in Miami Beach are the right audience to see this for the first time."
