Art: Shopdropping WalMart Clothes
Capri with Strapping (Black), 2004
Originally purchased on June 14, 2004 for $9.87 from the Wal-Mart store in Berlin, Vermont.
The clothing was duplicated by hand, matching pattern, fabric and embellishments. The tags from the original item were sewn into the duplicate. The duplicate was returned to the rack in Wal-Mart for potential sale at $9.87.
