I began collecting discarded shopping lists when I was 15 and worked part time at a supermarket. Despite their anonymity, found shopping lists read like poetry, and act as portraits of the people we pass in the aisles.

Most shopping lists are written quickly and without aesthetic consideration, and it's through the act of slowly recreating them that I allow myself the time and space to appreciate these seemingly mundane everyday objects, creating a permanent record of a fleeting moment.
