Finding Found Objects

While cleaning up my studio I came across a box of found objects that I have been collecting over the years. For a long time I used found objects in my artwork, I thought if they were combined just right they could be read as metaphorical, the combinations of objects used like words in a poems. I don't use them anymore but I can't seem to throw them away. I really enjoy looking at these strange collections of random items. I have held onto them for so long now they are like my other mementos. They are part of my art making history, they make me nostalgic and remind me of how I much I have changed.
