"Jigsaws chewing through plywood, moved along by paint-splattered hands; sawdust in eyelashes and lines of glowing Apples. Whining drills and the up-and-down noises of sewing machines. Fog that hangs like a weird, close curtain over iced-up branches and caribou on wooly hooves. Imagination that bubbles up and twists itself into cusps, chevrons, legs, seats and colours. The sound of the North Atlantic as a bedtime story. Molasses and Black Horse beer; tautons and salt cod. Cut-off in a beautifully upside-down dreamworld. Welcome that overflows through crowded kitchens filled with songs and yellow lamplight."
