Dear Miss Fitoussi,

Where were you when I did my brick post just a few days ago?  Well, I’ve just stumbled across your installation at the ‘The Gallery Mess’ in Duke of York Square on my way (dare I say) to the loo!

Imagine my surprise to discover what, to all intensive purposes, appeared to be bog standard subway tile on the walls, turned out to be bars of soap! And it smells so nice. And the way you have broken the effect by creating an area that breaks into textured ruination – well, I loved it. And customers have been carving their initials into the white waxen bars so it is a work in motion, adding that quiet layer of romance.  I love that too.

Thank you for the smile.  I’m keeping my eye on you.

Yours,

Colette
