The Shop of Lost and Found
Site Specific installation
60 Bedford Street, North Shields
A commission by North Tyneside Council
Installation Designer/Maker: Verity Quinn
In an empty shop, a group of tiny men are quietly going about their job of sorting through a collection of cameras. Almost nobody notices them. The cameras are precious items, lost to time and now relics in their own right. Each camera holds it’s own unique set of stories, which the little men listen to and scribble down onto labels. Here the memories of the people of the town are tucked away for safe-keeping, for just in case.
