FARIS: "This is about a collection I used to have. You always see abandoned gloves on the pavement and I used to collect them, label them with the location and time that I found them and put them in plastic bags. I'm sure that some of them had fleas. But I'd imagine stories of who they belonged to. In the end I threw them away because they started to freak me out."
