Lost & Found Society
Momentary Academy (at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Francisco)

Artists: Claudia Tennyson, Tucker Nichols, Kevin Killian. Project made in collaboration with Alex Burke.

Using the Lost and Found box at the Yerba Buena Center as a catalyst for a fiction writing workshop, this 3 session class combined practical procedures and guest artist presentations. Participating students worked with various creative writing techniques to produce a 1500 word essay on the fictional history of their chosen object. Photos of the lost objects and their short stories were compiled into a small booklet available to the public, and displayed in the gallery. The ultimate goal of the project was to help reunite these object with their owners.
