Soon after this photo was snapped, the lost baby skunk surely used it's "uncanny ability" and found its way back to it's mother.
Simon Chapman on top of the plateau without his shirt. On July 11 2001, three teachers from Lancashire, England set out to rediscover a remote plateau in Brazil, which is believed to have been the inspiration behind Conan Doyle's famous "Lost World".
In 1908 an English explorer, Colonel Percival Fawcett discovered the Serra Ricardo Franco hills in the Matto Grosso region of Brazil, whilst mapping the Brazilian/Bolivian border. Simon Chapman (expedition leader), D J Clark and Derek Roddenburg, retraced the footsteps of Fawcett and investigated his claims of a remote and inhospitable jungle wilderness.

Lose Yourself. Find Art. Discover Manchester, 6th-11th June
Lost & Found is a brand new festival of pop-up performance and impromptu art happening across Manchester and at Contact. Featuring a moving theatre on a Metrolink Tram, art in the Arndale and al fresco opera, Lost & Found will be held in a number of non-arts venues and public spaces across Manchester before culminating in a day of innovative work at Contact on Sat 11th June.
Lost & Found has been produced by Re:Con, Contact’s Young Programming and Producing Team. Established in 2010, Re:Con offers young people the opportunity to directly shape Contact’s programme, develop their professional practice and produce their own festival. Re:Con this year are: Phil Brankin, Alex Browning, Jennifer Gaskell and Rachel Moorhouse.
One of the highlights of Lost & Found will be Reykjavik, a stunning promenade performance exploring love, memory and the architecture of the mind. Requiring audience members to wear boiler suits Reykjavik was a hit at last year’s Edinburgh Festival, being nominated for a Total Theatre Award for Innovation and garnering superb reviews.
Other highlights of the festival include A Night of Found Arts -an evening of music and film at Bridgewater Hall’s Piazza on Friday 10th June, If You Speak Then I Will Listen – a one to one performance during which you do the talking and unique dance piece by Mixed Movement during which they will take over the fountains in Picadilly Gardens.
Most events are FREE and no booking is required. For events that have pre-booking, including Reykjavik, tickets are available via our box office at 0161 274 0600 and via the event pages at www.contactmcr.com
Lost & Found Festival 2011 is supported by Metrolink, Ideas Tap, PoWWow Pedal Power, O2 Think Big, Nexus Art Café and HMV.
Stuck in the fence. Where he stayed. I often pick up these lost toys but this one had a horrible floral embroidery on one side.

Description of art work in former glory:
Performance with my mum about her black half-sister in March 2008 at the National Portrait Gallery.
Cause of disappearance:
We were working for a week down at Shunt. It turned out that my dad had killed himself sometime during that week. My mum and I were due to perform our piece at the National Portrait Gallery a few weeks later and in the meantime I had to go up to scotland to organise the funeral. While there I found a letter to me from my dad in typically critical language. My mum and I were still reeling from the event by the time the performance at NPG came around. I decided that as a self portrait of my family and this particular and peculiar moment in time, I should read out the letter. During arguments at home, those not involved usually carry on with some task while keeping their heads down. As a child my mum had worked in her step father's chipshop peeling potatoes while her mother and stepfather fought in the kitchen. So for the performance, as I read the letter from my father, my mother simply stood, peeled a couple of potatoes and stared as the peelings as they hit the ground.
Later that night we all went to Shunt to celebrate the show and relax. I got really drunk and on the way home realised that the letter from my father that had been in my back pocket had disappeared. I went back to shunt, looked everywhere, waited til the cleaners came in and followed them round, but the letter had gone.
Left over:
There is no record of the performance, photographic or otherwise. Of the letter, only a taste remains, and the potato peelings that littered the white floor of the gallery have surely long decomposed.
