"There is a large military base in northern India, and military surplus goods are sold in the surrounding towns. I was fascinated by the sight of fabrics of different colors depending on the battlefield - green for the jungle, beige for the desert, white for the snowy mountains - gathered together by wholesalers and piled up in layers. The people working there also wore military surplus goods carelessly, and I remember one man who looked strangely cool in particular, wearing a sheet from a sleeper train wrapped around his head as a turban.
Large military tents surplus to the army were washed and then cut, avoiding metal fittings such as grommets and windows. Sometimes disassembled fabrics were sewn together to make a single piece of cloth."

This product is made by reusing used camping tents. It has been exposed to the elements and used in harsh outdoor conditions, and as a result, it has stains, rust, tears, and holes. Dirt and dyes may transfer to clothing and other items due to friction. The fabric has weakened over time, so it may tear or develop holes due to use or washing. Colors and designs are assorted. Every piece is unique and different from each other and will be picked at random.

Great for: getting your hands dirty; gardening, tooling, farming, painting.

Size: 68 x 92cm
Material: Used Fabric (Cotton, others)
