Evidence of Existence

At certain points in all our lives we will celebrate a personal landmark, a birthday, a wedding, each anniversary taking us closer to our final conclusion. The giving and receiving of gifts, extravagantly wrapped bringing pleasure and hope for the future.

Contained inside plastic bags are objects which have been identified as being symbolic of certain isolated events.
