Glass and Concrete

This picture was taken in Bangkok. From the top of the Golden Mount you have a great view over the whole city.

The front of this condominium is filled with windows, and there is not much space between them. It would be perfectly symmetric and regular if there was not this rooftop in the lower left corner of the image. If you imagine that each window stands for one person living behind it you not only get a feeling of the overpopulation in our cities but also of the restriction and even loss of individualism which goes with our modern world. We are pressed into patterns and forced to comply with standards of the system. Rebels against the mainstream are regarded as outlaws.
