Henry Moore believed tactility to be paramount, "as an aesthetic dimension", to both the making and the experiencing of sculpture. He really wanted us to be able to touch his work. However, its value and importance now means that doing so in most museums would be considered a big no-no-and for anyone for whom touch provides sight, this is massively restricting.

Only Lovers began with the idea of theatre. I built myself a nest of hours on the stage: a place where everything is carefully planned, placed and rehearsed. Every character is aware of the viewer, posing with emotions from a script of confessions and fantasies. The scenes are set by the sea, on various beds, with pareidolic jokes making their shy appearances.
