Last night I dreamed I was dreaming of you...

Last Wednesday I made a Facebook status update, "Last night I dreamed I was dreaming of you...".

The line is from a Tom Waits song, "Watch Her Disappear". That single line has been whirling about my mind, in that way that songs occasionally haunt you with some past truth you couldn't properly articulate.

On Friday, my friend and brilliant artist behind Doublethink Design, Chiara Adams posted on my Facebook wall that she had created an artwork (below) based on my status update. I don't know whether she was familiar with the origin of the line but I was blown away by how eloquently she had expressed it. Like that strange uncanny feeling I was having had just been given it's full voice. Thankyou so much Chiara.

Paper Chain - A Collage Project

Are you interested in joining in on a little collage fun?

My friend and I are hosting a group called Paper Chain using Facebook's ability to connect you to people you are closely and distantly linked with. Participants of Paper Chain will receive a collage in the mail and create a collage in response, to be sent to the next person on the chain.

Want to know more?
