Found Objects (2016) examines objects left behind on the road in a highly populated travel area. The work was shot at night with a long exposure and a flash light used to illuminate the objects. I used this approach to create a somewhat sinister effect that poses the question, “what happened that resulted in these objects being left behind?”. The video itself includes audio of the area these objects were found. This pairs paired with the forensic nature of the images to create the sinister vibe.
