MY LIFE AS “SLIPPERBUDDHA”

A few years ago, I stayed in India for four months and had brought an IXUS 55 with
me. During my stay, I had captured pictures of over 300 slippers in Diu, India. I
found them on the beach, on the street, in a waste dump and many of them close
to where the Indians burn the corpses. I started documenting the slippers that I
found with my camera.Shortly afterwards, I had discovered flickr, I then uploaded
50 pictures of this series, but nobody seemed to care about it. Why? I had
wondered. This was the beginning of my introduction to the the Flickr universe.
