All the repaired objects See All the repaired objects from the workshopp Art and Love Reparation Affald udgør et af de største samfunds problemer, -
også i global målestol. En søgning på søgemaskinen
Alltheweb 29 november 2002 gav 17,5 millioner hits på affald,
mens terror gav 7,3 millioner, 6,5 millioner på fattigdom, 3,7
på arbejdsløshed, 3 millionerpå racisme og hungersnød
gav 1,5 millioner. Søgning på Google og andre søgemaskiner
gav lignende resultater. (Se Zygmunt Bauman: Forspildte liv, s.35)
Det drejer sig om materielt affald, hvor konsumerismen og kravet om
nyt skaber større og større ophobninget af skrald men
desværre også menneskeligt affald. Om mennesker, der ikke
er behov for både i i-lande men navnligt u-lande, hvor overflødiggjorte
befolkningsgrupper er på flugt eller lever indspærret
i slumbyer og flygtningelejre uden nogen fremtid eller som jaget vildt
ved Europa´s og USA ´s grænser. YNKB Consumerism is a culture of addiction, driving its subjects to the
consumption of ever-newer, “immaculate” products, in search
of an ever-diminishing sense of satisfaction, always fleeting and
never fully realized. Its most highly prized commodities come packaged
in promises of enhanced pleasure, largely defined by increasing its
purchaser’s desirability on the open market. In this situation,
even a supposedly utilitarian object is defined less by its intrinsic
value than by extrinsic needs imposed upon it for ulterior purposes,
namely the consumer’s need for not only self-esteem, but, ironically,
a sense of self in the first place. Keith S Pirlot
