"Floccinaucinihilipilification" : When I was a child I was very restless. I never wanted to sleep. In order for my parents to rest, they would tie me to the bed with a rope. I often escaped and ran around the house with the mattress strapped to my back. I would also run away in shopping malls. My parents kept me on a leash when I was six. They told me later that I used to be trend back in the seventies. I found all of this out on a gloomy Sunday when I also found a photograph of myself with half a baby bed tied to my back. By that time, I was already deeply immersed in this project about the relation of things and the impossible need to create a perfect harmony with the world around us. With stuff or belongings, I do not only mean substantial things like furniture, bric-a-brac, luxury items or any article for practical use. I also respect the concreteness of immaterial elements like information, knowledge and visual data that are enforced upon us in our daily lives. All this needs a place to be stored and maintained as content in our mind. Explains Melanie Bonajo about her work (text findable at the end of the book).
