Burial Cloth







I ran into this cloth near the river in Tulameen and was reminded of various clothing used for burial. This clothing has been morphing and natural dyeing in the earth.

At the risk of sounding trite, i wonder what the story is there?

I know. I think that the clothing was a work garment from a construction site. The area had clothing all over the place.
Why? Dunno.
