The Art of Sophie Blackall (Missed Connections)
October 15th, 2009 Posted in Illustrations, Poetry
Sophie says, “Messages in bottles, smoke signals, letters written in the sand; the modern equivalents are the funny, sad, beautiful, hopeful, hopeless, poetic posts on Missed Connections websites. Every day hundreds of strangers reach out to other strangers on the strength of a glance, a smile or a blue hat. Their messages have the lifespan of a butterfly. I’m trying to pin a few of them down.”
She does a fantastic job at doing just that, pinning a few down.
