Recalling an early childhood experience: A friend and I gathered some
remains from the old farms waste-dump and exhibited it inside a tipi-like crude
structure of branches, telling our visitors imaginative stories of the bones’
probable origins: a cats scull told the tale of a puma, a jawbone of some
domestic animal became a remnant of bears living in the area not long ago. Show
visualises the basic structure of a show, whatever category: The space, the
lifeless objects - and most important - the (here missing) narratives
connecting the lifeless to the living.
