Andy Parker reinterprets the obsolete objects of his local surroundings, from domestic goods dumped in the street to indecipherable notes written in the dust on a van. He delights in the romantic impulse exposed in the gestures of anonymous individuals whose presence and activities are noticeable only in the faded traces they leave behind.
