We as citizens often walk so hurriedly from A to B that we don’t look at the people and buildings around us, let alone at what’s under our feet — many of us function on autopilot the majority of the time. It’s exactly there though, on the pavements and the streets of our cities, that we can find the most remarkable objects and traces. They are nuisances, trash, littering our beautiful surroundings, yet they can tell us so much about who we are as a community, what we desire, what we value, what we choose to keep and what we discard. Why was it acquired initially? What was the reason why it is no longer considered of value and worthy of keeping? These are some of the questions which prompted Brighton-based photographer Chloe Juno to turn her camera downwards. Words by ZAK R. DIMITROV
