This sweet little diver measures approximately 6" x 1 1/2". Each piece is handmade from recycled, repurposed objects.

Each little person comes with a copy of their own story, which helps bring their character to life.

This one's story is:

Nothing quite compares to the experience of diving down, down, down so deep. You hear your heart beating, the water encloses you in its embrace, and you become weightless. You push yourself through the water, to the depths, to explore this world of which you are not a part. You are an intruder here, but your greatest desire would be to become a part of it, to swim with the creatures that live here, to be a part of this vast expanse. Your chest begins to burn, reminding you that this cannot be, and slowly you ascend. You gaze down one last time before you break through the surface and gasp for air. “One day”, you say to yourself, “one day I will be a part of you.”

It is $45 and comes with a handcrafted copy of the story.

Uranium glass vessel under UV by Badly Drawn Dad

The uranium glass piece is shaped like a classical jug or ewer with an elegant curly handle. The smoke-blackened bulb on the left contains a vertical coaxial wire, and the tube on the right contains a wiggly inner tube like some kind of condenser.

Abandoned Car by angus mcdiarmid

Ellen said, "Look, someone's left a car over there."

Colin said, "Take a picture of it."

I did what I was told.

Clifton Downs, Bristol, yesterday. The bashes and scratches show up well at the large size.

The finished book - opening pages by lwrjam

I decided to keep the end pages a light colour on the inside so as to allow the clearest view through the acetate layers. My story is printed on the first page, and my name and details on the last. The 'Lost & Found' box is created with layers of around 30 found objects, similar to the way they accumulated in my candy jar. One or two at a time, falling in different spots inside the jar. The objects towards the bottom are obscured, so the viewer needs to turn the layer over to reveal each item clearly.
