Narratives of the Lost

2017

A collaboration with poet, Bren Simmers 

MEDIUM:
Drawings: photography, ink, graphite

DIMENSIONS:
Drawings: 16 x 20″ framed

The project began with pictures of lost objects taken on daily walks around Squamish, BC, where both creators lived at the time. They sent each other texts of their finds and responded to these objects with poetry, photography, and drawings. By framing these lost objects as art—gloves placed carefully on branches for their owners to reclaim—they become an entry point into the narrative, sparking conversations about connection. Who did these items belong to and how do they reflect Squamish’s changing community identity?
