sEcReTS

We share secrets with others, only because it makes us feel better. Because we are no longer the one who has sole custody of this burden of knowledge. Because we want to show others we know things they don’t know.

Whispered stories that grow in magnitude with each telling. Pieces of paper folded many times over. Secreted away in biscuit tins, pouches under your pillows, pockets sewn deep into your trousers.

The secrets people hide
The things people do to keep secrets
The secrets people keep
The keepsakes we secret away


Alliances broken, and formed. Friendships found, and lost.
