I HAD TEN THOUSAND SOULS

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.
