Descrizione
The photograph shows an apparently abandoned shoe on a city street.
Taken out of their context and photographed in relation to a carefully chosen background, the mundane items are turned into abstract icons that animate the city.
Found Not Taken reflects the consumer behaviour of a society characterised by the waste it produces and by the constant loss of the value of things.
