Rising on Your Own Terms
Embracing Distinction in a World of Conformity
In this photograph, the Chrysler Building emerges as a symbol of resilience and elegance, illustrating how standing apart with confidence can create true presence. It’s a reminder to embrace your distinctiveness, living life by your own rhythm amidst the ordinary.
About The Photograph
Received the Visual Intervention in November 2002 – New York.
Showing the Chrysler Building in all its glory, a powerful reminder that living life by your own rules is where true presence begins. Embrace your unique path, rise above the ordinary, and stand tall.
In this photograph I received, the Chrysler Building stands tall and striking against a minimal backdrop, framed by the shadows of neighboring buildings. To me, this image embodies resilience and elegance, capturing the essence of standing apart while still being part of the surrounding lifescape. The building’s unique Art Deco design reflects a choice I deeply resonate with: living life according to your own rhythm and rules, unbound by conventional expectations. It serves as a reminder that true presence comes from embracing one’s distinctiveness, rising with grace and unwavering conviction amidst the ordinary.
