Years and years ago, as an art project, I started urban-combing, like beach-combing but on the streets around our neighbourhood. I’d then create pictures, shadow boxes and arrangements of my finds. It was quite a residential area with two schools so you always found lots of interesting lost objects and all sorts of colourful litter. We live in the countryside now. Today I had a flash back, when on our busy road with only one other house and no pavement, I found next to each other near the kerb - a tiny plastic dog and some wash care instructions written in Spanish. Make of that what you will… . . . #urbancombing #plasticdog #washcareinstructions #lostandfound #lostobjectart #foundobjectart #thrownaway #roadsidefind (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cifgx19jXFv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Just listed - found treasures from the 1300’s to the 1800’s have been assembled alongside Roman glass beads and tiny iridescent opals to make rustic dangle earrings with a primitive vibe. I’ve arranged grungy and turquoise patina lost buckles, medieval hoops, button and a clock part found in the Notts/Leics/Lincs area together using sterling silver in a nod to bringing the end back to the beginning. Iridescence and texture!
