An article I found relating to seized customs items, the
beauty of this project lies in the artists documentation of
the obscure and unusual objects attempting to pass through
days at the airport collecting over 1000 photographs of items
seized from passengers and express mail entering the U.S.
Items included the active ingredient found in Botox, counterfeit
clothes and designer accessories, pharmaceuticals, jewelry,
overproof Jamaican rum, drugs, items made from endangered
species, Cuban cigars, animal parts, pirated DVDs, khat, gold dust,
GBL (date rape drug), cow-manure tooth powder, and steroids.
