‘There are so many paintings I want to make having read this beautiful, amazingly visual material. Andra Simons shares a series of deep insights into a world full of people bursting with high energy, tangible emotions and an understandable urgency, in an extraordinary collection of sumptuous writing about lives lived at the frayed edges. It shudders with layered sound, bittersweet tastes, and everyday objects made mystical.’ – Lubaina Himid
