The way to classify and organize the objects we see in flea markets is as enigmatic to us visitors as it is for anyone, even for the seller, to trace its provenance, the log of each rejected article. Multiverses alludes in a certain way to the immeasurability of these possible worlds, parallel worlds in which the objects have been silent witnesses to happenings, horrors, fantasies and celebrations, and which now share a common space and evoke memories all at once real, invented or implanted.
But at the same time, as with every market, it is not just a space for chance encounters or forced friendships, like those between a doll and a cell phone or an umbrella and a sewing machine, but also a launching pad, a starting point for countless potential futures. Past and future Multiverses, cycles of death and resurrection of imaginations and meanings.
