The work is about meeting people through a lonely hearts column. I placed an ad in several publications and when to meet several of the replies. The piece is a humorous narrative of the dates, layed back into a classified page of "time out" - wall papered in the corner of the space, as if the viewer is reading an opened magazine. It serves as an insight into the world of dating, whilst touching on the role of voyeurisms.
