With only a few days left to go before I submit my final degree work, I am still thinking about the concept of the tokens, loss and separation. I have spent most of the day wondering if I have got it right and could I have done more. Historical reference in dress has never been about evolution,continuity...in dress, surfaces float free of their histories. Clark 2004. I wonder if this "token" floats free of its history, I would like to think history is inscribed in it's surface.
