After discovering some discarded photocopies in the library I was inspired to make something with them or to include them somehow in my exploration of traces. In doing this I decided to transfer the images on to different kinds of paper and fabrics. By mixing both the found images with those that I had previously taken of discarded objects and rubbish I have attempted to create pieces that reuse and re-tell the stories of the refuse. What appeals to me most about these pieces is the damage and distortion of the images, the way that they seem to tell a narrative yet at the same time conceal it from you.
