An exhibit curated by the students of ANTH 431/518 “Museum Methods”.
Now on at Irving K. Barber Learning Centre, Floor 2.
This student-produced exhibition considers UBC student clothing, the contexts in which students dress, and their diverse self-expressions.
We explore UBC student clothing through a range of themes. We look at:
- The history of the UBC logo and the Thunderbird mascot
- How students express individual and group identities through clothing
- The ways students display identity through club membership
- The changing demographics of the student body and how nationality affects student clothing
We hope this exhibition provokes you to think about how your clothing represents you.
