Fabric, by Victoria Finlay, The Hidden History of the Material World. Explore the history of fabric, its origin, and what it means to the communities it comes from. Finlay travels the world in search of answers about the creation of fabric, where it comes from and what it means to us as a society. From Papua New Guinea to Gee's Bend, Alabama and several stops in between, Finely digs deep into different fabrics such as Barkcloth, Tweed, Sackcloth, and patchwork. Her journey starts shortly after the deaths of her parents, which brings more meaning to her story and her personal journey through her grief.
