Just a little of something can be a lot. In a world of mass consumerism and increasing complication, perhaps we all need to step back and say ‘less is more’. Amidst our busy lives the simple touch of a loved one – a partner’s caress, a friend’s gesture of solidarity and empathy, or a child’s cheeky, high-five can mean so much and ‘ground’ us once more. ‘A Touch of Red’ is my minimalist response to our often hectic and over-stimulated lives and a reminder to keep things simple and stay in touch with those we love.
