"The Memory of My Wardrobe," a project by Finnish photographer Ida
Taavitsainen, explores the personal narratives given to clothing
inherited or simply handed down to her by her family. Over the
years, she acquired a lot of clothes, many once belonging to people
she never knew--her great-great-grandmother, for instance--but all
with family ties. The clothes interested her: What were their
histories? What had they gone through before she started wearing
them? What stories do a ripped seam or the faded color of a fabric
tell? Here, her care-fully composed still-life photographs and
brief anecdotes tell a charming tale--a family album full of
stories but without people.
