Archives In Focus: The Lost & Found Archive @lostnfoundonline
Started by photographer Mia Patterson, The Lost & Found archive is an online collection of photographs, often found in cold garages, damp lofts, Ebay, antique stores, and other ordinary places.
“I think there’s a real feeling sometimes with photography that can feel a bit pretentious about what it can and can’t do and what it has to be in order to be good enough, and these pictures of peoples holidays and moments they felt were big enough for them to take a picture are just as important as anything else photography can do - it’s the connection it creates with our own memories” says Mia.
Archives In Focus is a series dedicated to spotlighting digital archives and the archivists who bring them to life. Each feature highlights collections that preserve fleeting moments in culture - whether skateboards, stickers, old film stock, or more. Together, they form digital treasure troves that keep small pieces of time alive and intertwined with human connection.
