• This is art. I like that there is no context, no explanation for each item. I feel encouraged to make up the stories myself. And the presentation, each piece of trash framed in minimalist black, kind of like a pedestal really, makes me consider aspects of each piece that would otherwise be lost. Really good.

  I think the black background really contributes to how effectively artistic these items are. I checked some of the first pictures in the archive which didn't have it yet and it wasn't nearly the same experience.
