Re-worn
About:
“Re-Worn” is the reconstruction of my beloved winter coat. It is an acknowledgment of the value I place on the memories embedded in the fabric, the tacit sense of familiar comfort and the recognition of a finely crafted garment.
Reworking the coat in this way is an opportunity to feature the inherent worn history of the garment while showcasing it in the present.
It is a positive exercise in holding on.
