In the heart of a Lincolnshire recycling center, a collection of fiberglass mannequins stands frozen in time, their forms fractured and faded, waiting for a second chance. At its core, the center seeks to breathe new life into what would otherwise be discarded, offering a fate far better than the landfill for these forgotten figures. Yet, in their stillness, they serve as a stark reminder of how many items in our everyday lives we use with little thought beyond their immediate purpose. Once that purpose is fulfilled or rendered obsolete, we swiftly replace them with new—discarding the old without a second glance. The mannequins, once symbols of commerce and display, now embody this cycle of consumption and disposal. As nature slowly reclaims them—vines creeping over limbs, moss blanketing torsos—they become poignant metaphors for the things we abandon, and the often invisible ways in which we discard both objects and memories. This photographic study reflects on how easily we overlook the life cycle of the things we rely on, only to replace them when their use is no longer deemed valuable.
