In 2009 I began a project in which I unstitched my three-piece wedding suit and created two replicas, one in burlap and one in tarp material. Recently, I created a third suit, made from Carhartt's signature rust-brown 12-ounce, 100% ring-spun cotton duck. I will be composing several photographic situations in which I am wearing this hand-made Carhartt suit and conducting various activities. Please check back often for these alternate situations.
