The stuffed bunny on the sidewalk, a love that didn't last, the ugly duckling, old behaviors, childhood dreams. That mitten you dropped somewhere, your first best friend, the 80's (before they came back). An alien pod baby, your family, the slow kid. Whether it was advantageous or tragic, with resolution or unbeknownst to us, we've all left stuff (or someone) in our wake; and most likely, we know what it feels like to have been left behind at one time, too.
"Left Behind" captures various aspects of what being left behind entails, interpreted by each artist with personal experiences coloring his or her work. From humorous to tragic, the possibilities are endless.

I chose to use "satellite" as the subject matter for my interpertation of " Left Behind".
This quote from "Naked Scientists" will put my in better words than I can :)
"We've obviously got one natural satellite, our Moon. But we've actually launched around 8000 artificial satellites up into orbit around the Earth. However, that's not all there is orbiting around the Earth. As well as these 8000 solid lumps of whole satellite that are up there, we've got lots and lots of little bits of junk swirling around. Now that can be anything from a nut and a bolt that's been lost to astronaut gloves that have been lost during space missions. This stuff can actually be quite a problem, because as it's up there whizzing around at kilometres per second, if it hits another satellite it can seriously damage it and blow some more bits off. So all the time this stuff is accumulating, but there's no easy way to go up and remove it. Eventually all of it will slow down and fall into the Earth but it's up there for a long period of time."
