Collection concept:
There was a time when man travelled for days or months to be with someone or somewhere. There was a time when man wrote letters and you could see him and feel him through his writing. In our time you meet people and go places through our screens. We all write the same with our keyboards. But we are flesh and bone! Don’t we need our senses? We are losing our smell, our touch, our hearing inside our social media boxes. You are where your flesh and bones are…are you alone?
