Strategically designed jacket with 9 pockets and embroidery on the back: "My Life as a Museum". Each pocket is designed to carry a Dayanita Singh museum book.

Handmade in India.

"After making the "Museum Bhavan" box with the nine museums folded into an accordion, I made a jacket for myself. The jacket had nine pockets that allowed me to wear the museums and walk around with them. Always ready to take out a museum and show it off to a passer-by." - Dayanita Singh in an interview with Talking Pictures Original in January 2023.
