note: future project.

i only have two weeks left of work. after that, i still have a whole month left before i'm back to school. therefore, i am going to force myself to do some art.

today, while cleaning the third floor of the gallery where i work, i found a bag that contained some fabric. i wanted some fabric to cover my sketchbook with, so i looked through it and noticed some that was white, with very faint traces of where there used to be small purple flowers. i thought it was a bedsheet, but it turned out to be a dress. with several holes in it.

i want to collect a bunch of old clothes in an extreme state of disrepair: dresses where the fabric is thinned and falling apart, jeans with holes everywhere, moth-eaten sweaters. and repair them. patch the holes, maybe embroider the faded prints.

finding the old clothes is the hard part.
