Sedlaček.
While travelling lavatories are in the same way as continental
breakfasts one of luxuries or goods of the twentieth century in hygienic
sense and the toilet its ubiquitous icon. Philosopher Slavoj Žižek wrote
about multitude of the lavatory types exposing German, French and Anglo-Saxon
toilet and how these different types of excrements disposal characterises
the national character.
Because travelling to the east the toilets changed according
to different national characters and in India we found them all, even
more, we found Indian squat toilet and euro Indian lavatory. The final
number of the different types of lavatories that we encounter is five.
We decided to manufacture the needlework sketches of lavatories in India,
where the labour is cheap.
