Drawing created by Danielle Koren, c.1979, in the art therapy studio at Netherne hospital where she was compelled to live. This drawing on scrap paper is very small, found among Edward Adamson’s files of personal correspondence which contain many cards & letters from individuals sent after release

A cross hatched pen and ink drawing in black and white of two beautiful thin white youths dressed in Tudor clothing, doublet and hose with ruffs.
Their dress is masculine but their gender is not obvious, they are reminiscent of Orlando, the one on the right is wearing lighter clothes and has fair hair and stands, arms folded, feet crossed with a ballet dancer’s grace and poise in the foreground, the one on the left has darker hair and clothes and stands hands on hips, left foot pointing out, as if preparing to curtsy. 
Their shadows are long across the chequered floor and the background is black

#Tricky keeps returning to Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner On Different When It’s Silent, “Because I Don’t Know” echoes Roy Batty’s “tears in the rain” monologue: “I guess we’re changing lanes / Like tears in the rain” On Maxinquaye, “Aftermath” sampled Leon Kowalski: “Let me tell you about my mother”
