TEURI HAARLA
EgoCatastrophe-a-gain!
Photographs, sculptures, video work
12.5 - 30.5.2010

Let’s leave substitutes.
Father died young in his
reach after substitutes.
The real right thing
he never got.

It was just that father’s body
could not stand
his hard mind.

The son doesn’t want to
make the same mistake
but the same things are difficult
also for the son.

I doubt the old THALES (624–549 B.C.) from Miletos would not
feel insulted, if I quote here his words. According to D.
Laertios, when asked what is difficult in life, he answered:

- To sense and know oneself is difficult.

- What is then easy?

- It is easy to give advices to others.
