Visiting charity shops, I began to think about objects. Once valued; displayed in a cabinet or on a mantlepiece. Then downgraded and finally discarded. There is sadness when I imagine the reason these items found their way to a second hand store. I place myself into settings beside another person's belongings - becoming an object with their objects. I do not disturb anything, leaving all items as I find them. There is an intimacy in this act. In this image, the title gives the object its name. It stands in a place where it is yet to become anonymous. It stands in a place where it is seen.
