Sample produced for Arm (C)hair, commissioned by Staffordshire University Archaeology Department for the Finding Treblinka exhibition at The Museum of Struggle and Martyrdom at Treblinka, Poland in August 2015.

The pattern was developed from hair combs left at the site by victims which was found in archaeological research by Dr Caroline Sturdy-Colls.

The chair was subsequently exhibited at the Wiener Holocaust Library, London, when the exhibition toured there in 2016. More information here
