The flat also came with some religion, three icons are hanging from nail hammered in the wall that divides the living room and the kitchen. The daily wear of the building left a parallel crack that runs on the same diagonal.
Having been built in the industrial, the flat is full of lines that run between the concrete slabs. I have no idea how to fix this, but since i have to take everything apart, I will eventually figure it out anyway. Will keep you posted.
But I was writing about the three icons; not wanting to go into the depths of such a delicate subject, I couldn’t help it wonder if I should keep them or not, keeping my mind at use for not being blasphemous or something. Pascal’s wager just popped to mind, and it would be so simple to stray off and start a whole different post.
The best things would be to pass them to someone else (they’re really in the face of whomever comes to visit, even though I’ve learned not to pay attention to the icons; when I do, i snap out of it quickly; should i want to have any sex in the living room, I’ll have to keep in mind to look away) and replace them with something more discrete. I could rest the Coran, the Torah, the Laws of Manu and other religious writing on that an IKEA shelf, acknowledging faith, and also my own doubt. I need more time to settle on religion.
Art would be more appropriate for my living room/work area. I keep my desk here, I would appreciate inspiration and beautiful things. Good design, retro design, urban spirits and sexual energy.
