Lost possessions
is a richly illustrated essay exploring the curious tradition of
picking up items dropped by complete strangers in public places, and
placing them - in routine acts of simple anonymous generosity - on
fences, walls or branches to make it more likely that their owners will
recover them.
If you’ve ever dropped something in the street and found that someone unknown has taken the trouble to pick it up and place it safely in view, so that you could recover it, you may have been struck by the simple thoughtfulness of their action.
Lost possessions is a collection of striking photographs, with a light-hearted essay exploring this reassuring tradition of uncelebrated, considerate behaviour.
16 pages, printed in full colour on high quality, FSC-approved sustainably-sourced paper.
