Suitcase 20 - BLOODIED WALLPAPER

A suitcase of wallpaper fragments soaked in blood, long considered to be Luper¹s blood, but probably the blood of cattle from the cattle trucks arriving from Germany and Poland at Antwerp Railway Station.
A reminder of the violence of Luper¹s imprisonment.
Design and execution by Marc Thelosen and Boy Terhell, have a look...

Suitcase 2 - Toys

An update on the Suitcases has been made today. It is suitcase 2 - TOYS.

A suitcase packed by Luper’s mother. The toys were a collection assembled out of the assortment of objects assembled by Luper, relative to his many future interests, most of them associated with the disciplines of measuring and collecting, classifying and ordering. It is a suitcase to represent the interests of Luper’s life.

You can find it at www.tulselupernetwork.com in the section by Category/Suitcases/Suitcase 2

Suitcase nr. 04

The Loveletters
A suitcase of 92 letters written by Luper’s father, Ivor, to Luper’s mother, Carrie Ashdown, in 1916 and 1917, and sent from the Flanders trenches to Newport in South Wales. The letters, acquired, read, studied and treasured by the 18 year old Luper, gave him an insight into questions of loyalty and endurance, and emotional and erotic love.

Listen to the first 10 read by Tulse Luper. I am unsure where and when these recordings were made...

Suitcase 19 - passports

At the moment I am collecting and sorting the passports that were discoverered in this suitcase. I still need to do some research on the history of the suitcase. I have not found evidence yet of where and when it was packed, nor by whom, nor how it got lost. I do know that it was found in a lost properties office in Antwerp. Hopefully I will be able to publish some of the content next week.
