Textiles are one of the oldest forms of material culture. From the time the most rudimentary cloth was woven, textiles have served to convey important ideas about human history, social values and personal identity. Textiles such as bedding, wall coverings and clothing, have an intimate relationship with the human body and its environment. In this way, they track how human life unfolds.
