Abstract

Are your T-shirts some of the least valuable pieces of clothing in your wardrobe? Or are they very important to you? Have you ever wondered about the origin of your T-shirts, how they were made, where, or by whom? Join us on a journey to explore the places where the cotton for T-shirts was grown. We’ll introduce you to the people who turned the natural fiber into fabric, and you’ll discover what this means to you. Here, we’ll follow the journey of the T-shirt that was specifically produced for this project. Together we can discover what different stories a T-shirt can tell. Enjoy your travels!
