About this artwork

The installation signage asked viewers to write on a tag to share the one personal item they would take with them if they were forced from their home. A duplicate kimono form faced away toward the window. The T-form is both sides of a postcard. For a short time, the Poston concentration camp had a camouflage factory. Overall dimensions are approximately 11 ft. x 7.5 ft x 2 ft. This is a collaboration with Teri Tera. Medium: print on chiffon, wood, wire, modern camouflage, paper tags, ink, string.
