I dream of going to Russia, having an inherent love affair with folkloric art, design and Russian literature, topped by a childhood ritual updated each year, of watching Omar Sharif as Dr.  Zhivago, through which I became obsessed with Romanov, then revolutionary design, seen through a David Lean lens.
