Susan in the House

Picture
My dear, dear friend Susan Van Valkenburg left these shores to return home to the US, taking with her, her English husband, their son and a gaggle of pets. I miss her. This is a record of the things that remain of Susan in my home.
As Art of Clean, I occasionally clean the student rooms at Centrepoint,  in Cambridge, and am struck by how much the posessions in these empty rooms say about their occupants.
At a time when it behoves us to acquire less 'stuff', the complex relationship between ourselves and our posessions; what they suggest about us to others and how we use them to define ourselves, becomes ever more sharply focused.
