forsaking keeps

description

These are digital collages that I am composing using photographs sourced from other people's postings in Craigslist Vancouver's Free Stuff section. These photographs are of the same free items I am collecting for the project in/side Free, a participatory installation where these objects will be offered for free to the public.  The collages are meant to serve as a visual archive of everyday things that we no longer need or want but wish to give away. The archive is indexed according to the different ways of giving to strangers, ranging from personal to the impersonal, congeniality to indifference.
