How delightful that the cursor helped me to remember the time I moved into an old house on the west coast of canada with vast continental drifts of wallpaper in my bedroom that needed to scraped off. The first layers were geometric and pastel coloured, while the layers from the seventies were thick, textured and brighly coloured. After a while, in different parts, I came down to first papers. They were subtle, floral designs that were sometimes stenciled and then painted by hand. I wanted to keep the different layers, but I admit that I was not as permissive, nor as patient, as I now imagine myself to be. I ended up removing all the beautiful papers, taking the accreted wall down to the plaster. Thank you so much for this.
