how to fill space




New York is hot in the summer. Luckily, every building, as well as the subway, provides ruthless air conditioning. The contrast is huge. You learn to live with it, but it does strike you every time, leaving no room for subconscious adaptation. Contrasts inspire me. It is the notion of things not being able to exist without its counterpart that makes it interesting. If there was no heat, there would be nothing to call cold. If there was no gray, you wouldn't see the colours. And what would space be if there was nothing being created to fill it? A big non-existence.
