Hair Band in Train

May 15th, 2008 · 3 Comments

Sitting down on the train going from Brockley to London Bridge I found this hair band. Thouht about using it for my hari that day, but they I thought about my project. Since this is worn on a part of a body (hair), this should qualify as a personal article of clthing, right? So I took it and drew the outline using my trusty yellow chalk on the seat of the train.

    An interesting experiment in urban anthropology. One thought that came up was that in Jakarta none of these personal clothings would exist on the street for more than a few minutes, seconds even; someone would have immediately picked them up to use, or sell again for food etc.
