Over the past few years, I've been creating facsimiles of handwritten notes I've found in public spaces around my neighbourhood, such as streets and car parks. I'm drawn to their incomplete narratives, as well as the unique handwriting and wear on the paper. By replicating them as drawings, I transform these ephemeral items into artworks that invite deeper scrutiny and interpretation. These notes offer insights into the human condition, revealing stories that are often passed by in the rush of daily life.
