Saved Objects

A participatory project led by Jody Servon and Lorene Delany-Ullman

 

Saved Objects invites you to share photos of and memories about objects you’ve saved from deceased loved ones. This ongoing, participatory project honors the dead and builds community around death and dying for the living. Saved Objects was created by Jody Servon and Lorene Delany-Ullman as an expansion of their collaborative photography and prose work Saved: Objects of the Dead.

To participate: share a photo of an object you’ve saved from a deceased loved one along with a description of why that person and item is special to you. Submit your photo and text to the Saved Object project pages on Instagram, Facebook or email them to savedobjects@gmail.com.

Click on the photos below to reveal the contributed text about each item. Also visit Facebook and Instagram to see the growing collection of contributions in memoriam.
