THE HOLES

These shirts have been moth-eaten and repaired. Each hole covered up with appliquéd moths. The moths are made in a workmanlike manner, lacking any self-expression. Merely a task of constructing and repairing. Like the reconstruction of a building after a war. New stones and new plaster are placed next to the old ones. Albeit, in better condition, the newer walls are the ones that actually house the memory of the destruction. The older one stones hold more memories, like the memories of peace and the joy of it's making.

Another Shirt was made. this one with a much more decorative set of moths because it was intended as a present.
