Hoarders

Obviously, this is trash tv, and the people clearly have a psychological problem but I found it fascinating that the people could live in these circumstances for so long. However it is an example of how things can creep up on the individual when there is something wrong. 
In relation to my project I found the need to keep possessions in order to have a connection to the past similar to the lifetime element of my work. When the people are living each day in these houses filled with their lives, past and present, it reminds me having a life in a room (which is what I am aiming for). They do not throw anything away and therefore everything from their lives is just around them. 
In a very strange way it is perfect as research for my project.
