(found objects), 2009
Photographs of found vases that were circulating in the Italian underworld with the purpose to sell them through the illegal art world. In Italy, the finder of ancient treasures is legally obliged to hand them over to the Department of National Heritage, in exchange for either a cash reward or tax reduction.
