One Cold Hand

Recently I saw an article about a woman in Pittsburgh that has been collecting single gloves that have been lost in the hopes of posting them on the internet in the hopes someone will recognize one as their own and she can reunite the pair of gloves. She titled her project “One Cold Hand” Well the story hit the A.P.wire and took off like a meteor. She has been on NPR and CNN. She has even gotten international exposure!

I guess this is good because maybe it will draw attention to the One Shoe Diaries. After all she is doing gloves and I am doing shoes, she is about reuniting and I am doing it as a form of art.

Actually, who is upset is my friend Linda (the Glove Lady) who has been collecting lost gloves for almost 14 years!! Just about the same day she set up her exhibition, FOUND GLOVES, One Cold Hand hit the airwaves. I believe she has around 400 gloves in her collection. After seeing her exhibition it is hands and shoulders above Ms Gooch’s. It has a lot of stories and history behind the gloves. It is a very impressive collection. I cannot wait to collaborate. She has the same passion as I do with regards to her collection.

This is my plea to those friends of mine and fans of the One Shoe Diaries. If you know of any ways to get exposure for the book please let me know, I am up for any ideas. This project is just getting started.

And I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you that have supported our project and journey!
