These betting slips were discarded in and around many betting shops (71 at the time of publication) in the borough of Hackney in north-east London. Each of these papers began as hope, were shaped by loss or defeat, then cast aside. These new forms perhaps now possess a state of mind, shaped by nervous tension and grief. After these images were made, little autopsies were performed on the papers to reveal the failed bets held within.
