Day 2 of my oval house residency and my 3rd London dweller
Over that last month I have noticed that I am increasingly being asked the question: “so have you held hands with a stranger yet?” It’s an interesting question and in many ways highlights a level of expectation people and perhaps myself might have on the project. This question about a stranger is one of comfort and risk I think. Holding hands for this prescribed amount of time is not necessarily comfortable regardless of how well I might know a person. It’s a great question to keep pondering and a useful one as I try to create a situation where a group of people attempt to join me in the action.
