In Psychometry, arrangements of old objects in dilapidated spaces serve as metaphors for human emotions and psychological states. The term psychometry refers to the pseudo-science of object reading, a purported psychic ability to divine the history of objects through physical contact. The objects in these pictures seem haunted. They are designed to transcend their material nature and evoke the mysterious presence of past.
