For my text project, I decided to explore “questions of space”, narrowing it down to the concept/notion of home. I was really inspired by the “Dakota” video by Young Hae Chang, so I am trying to follow the same style.
questions OF space
notion OF home
“owning a property affords someone a house in which to be at home
at the price of being homeless in the world”
where do you live?
here? but you don’t
here is not your home
home is supposed
to have
a permanency in it
but yet here is still what you call home
what is home?
“the place where one lives permanently, especially as a member of a family or household.”
the space is our home
your house is not a home
or at least
it shouldn’t be
so you try to build yourself your own home
in the hope to feel comfortable
and mostly to belong
creating a home is using space
but what kind of space will YOU use?
will you use your mind?
your soul?
your body?
your family?
your friends?
your loverS?
your dreams?
your nightmares?
your addictions?
your pleasures?
your pains.
not everyone survives bohemia
…
a return to nomadic existence
must arise
the world is a space of collaborative space making
so why the fuck
aren’t we yet collaborating
start embracing space
start embracing your surroundings
and maybe
maybe then
you’ll find
and create
a home
“freedom is the most difficult way of living that man can lead. For freedom can only be realized in creation and creation means discipline”
