Messages:  From: (s)mitten with luv , manchester, UK, 13 Feb 2005
Once upon a time two hands met and fell in love. Their digits became mutually attracted and their palms could not keep their skins off each other. Because of the energy of their love there was none left to make a bright picture here in this installation. So beware everyone who thinks that wearing warm woollly things is a purely practical pastime.
