The first featured uncollecting project is entitled departures.

Found, or been given, a Departures Project object ?

Do something inventive with it! Record what you do and then put your image, text or video on our Flickr group site: www.flickr.com/photos/groups/eatio  It only takes a minute to join Flickr.

After use, pass the object onto a new participant or return to a charity shop/thrift shop/op shop (with the numbered label attached in both cases)  If you want to keep the object, please provide a substitute and write SUB next to the item number.

Our first featured collector is Sueflower, based in Sheffield. She owns what has been described as a ‘stuffed Victorian Villa’. Every horizontal and vertical surface seems to feature one collection or another. The arrangement of her objects is interesting: artists would call them ‘found object installations’ Sueflower comments: (text to follow)
