So Alex and I were discussing the possibility of him writing some fictional narratives to go along with some of these photographs that will be posted here. I’m completey down with collaborations!!! If anyone else has some ideas to further this process, please do comment!

I think this might answer your question a bit more kitty!!!

I am constantly coming across objects/photos from other’s lives.  All of it’s building up, and until now, I wasn’t sure what to do with it all.

I am currently following a family of uknowns, with dates starting as early as 1929 and ending some time in the very early 90’s.  I was lucky enough to gain access to an apartment that was being dumped of it’s contents.  The woman and son who lived there (for only 4 months) had been evicted and never returned to claim their possessions.  This 4 room apartment was so full of stuff that I had to make a path to get thru the front door and into all other rooms.  From what little I know about this mother/son duo, they were avid collectors of everything and anything.  What follows are current scans of photographs of what I am assuming to be extended family of this unknown woman.

It seems odd that someone would dedicate some much time in collecting, organizing, and moving all of this crap, only to leave it all behind.

LUCKY ME!!
