This exhibition was born out of a collection of a collection. Without a hint of nostalgia, I looked at the chaos-order of objects had been accumulating in my parents' house " in case we need it ", which I found when I arrived to evacuate.
Wandering between necessary or unnecessary objects,

I looked at the hoarding phenomenon through the terrorizing concept of "pity/shame" ("it is a pity to throw away", "we better keep it until we need").

Second-generation survivors of one war, remained with all their parents had kept for after the next war, while leaving 

psychological scars of concern for a loss.

On one hand, we were born into the brain scalded archive of objects, applications, feelings, knowledge, beauty, when everything is equally meaningful, without distinction between the important and the unimportant; placing the object beyond time, place, usability, durability or capability. On the other hand, we live now in a world of increased consumption, in the era of a short shelf life products. As the pursuit of capitalist affluence grows, hoarding is considered more obsessive. Through household processed items, which has been taken out of their time and use, I wonder about the fine line between display and usability, purposefulness and futility and the difference between sanctification of saving and sanctifying the innovation.
