The landscape is never short of the signs of garbage. It is the ghost that haunts presence, the mucky hand print left behind.
I have been reading a book called ‘On Garbage’ by John Scanlan and I am amazed by how interesting the topic of garbage can be. The book describes waste as leftover matter that is the result of a separation of the desirable from the unwanted, the valuable from the invaluable, and the worthy from the worthless. But is one person’s garbage another person’s treasure.
