Kindness of Strangers
by Lee A. Caligiuri, USA
exhibit Nr.612
Description: This is a small-scale collage which incorporates a tiny photo of the Denby stoneware cup I filled every morning with espresso while staying with a friend in Sandbach, Cheshire.
Comments/Origin: Sometimes people show great kindness and unselfishness to someone they don't know well.
In the spring of 2006 I experienced this firsthand when I was welcomed to visit the UK and stay with a friend I had only met once, but stayed withfor nearly five weeks.
The photo in this collage is a reminder of the espresso we shared every morning and to me symbolises the kindness I was graciously shown.
