Thanetian Coast

'Thanetian Coast' is a printed garment fragment which depicts a drawing of an incoming storm. The drawing is taken from a Community pamphlet that documents the Ohio 'Super Outbreak' of 1974 where a high number of tornadoes hit the towns around Xenia over one weekend. This piece is from the EXTERNAL group of dress pieces, part of the 'Locus of the Dress' project.
