Hair Shirt
Fabric Workshop, Philedelphia, PA.
1978 

Drawing on designed pigskin shirt. (Edition of 5)

"Hair Shirt"
made of rough hair
worn as penance

an attempt to turn the body 
against itself

wheat, grass, hay;
hair of the earth

hair representing passion,
power, energy, humor

a shirt come to life
in harmony
with the body.
