I HAD TEN THOUSAND SOULS
digital photos
Hungary, 2013.
The phrase of ‘ten thousands souls’ refers my objects in my room. I was actually interested in how many things were in my room and also which objects are useful, and which are not useful: just remained from childhood or my sibling’s stuffs etc or I just could not break away from it though I could throw it or pass it away. All of my objects were documented by camera, I tried to leave all of them on their own place.
I was only curious for a statistic which’s result is: there were all together 15 960 objects in my room, of which 8921 were useful for me then and 7039 were not.
The phrase of ‘ten thousand souls’ was borrowed Gaza Ottlik’ book, called School is on Border.
