SYNOPSIS

Take a deep breath and slip sideways into the space between our world and a Land where our Lost Things live: the socks that went missing from your laundry, the umbrella you just can’t find, the ‘chouchous’ or bantal busuks that got thrown away without your knowledge. There are things that we don’t get to say a proper goodbye to, and here is our chance.






In this work, we invite young families to take care of Lost Things and send them off to the next stage of their lives. How might we hold and cradle these things that may have meant the world to someone else - someone we might never meet? What new clothes and accessories can we offer to these Things? What messages might we want to whisper or give to them as they journey onwards—to the Land where no humans are allowed, where our own precious Lost Things now live?
