Glove Drawing Series
It took a while to notice how many of them there are – lost gloves and mittens on the sidewalks of New York. I did, though, and began collecting them, bringing them home to draw. I did this over the course of one calendar year - 1 January to 31 December - and by the time I was done, I'd finished over 180 drawings. Each drawing includes the date when and the location where the glove was found.
Who had designed these gloves, who had made them, sold them; who had selected, worn. . . and then lost them? Each glove or mitten tells a story, both of hurrying New Yorkers and one New Yorker who chose to memorialize them.
