Artifacts in a Carrier Bag is a still life photography series that displays the nostalgic or essential items people carry with them. The Carrier Bag Theory of Human Evolution, coined by the anthropologist Elizabeth Fisher, argues that the first cultural device used by humans was probably a carrier bag. This contradicts the commonly assumed and glorified stereotype of humans as primarily hunters. This series emphasizes the behavior of collecting objects as a quintessentially human experience, connecting our modern everyday lives to our gathering ancestors of the distant past.
