FOUNDLINGS

For the past three years, artist Jill Dalton has been creating a series of found-art sculpture-puppets called Foundlings, and Megan has been writing poems about them.

Now, images of the resulting 12+ sculptures, along with the poems that they inspired, have been collected in a small monograph called Foundlings.

This book launches in conjunction with the exhibit “Detritus” at Mayo Street Arts, in which some of these sculptures and poems will be on display. The exhibit opens on February 6, 2026. from 5-8 pm — with some poems to be read aloud informally, near the sculptures that inspired them, around 6 pm.

The Foundlings monograph will be available in the gallery for purchase, or can be ordered here.
