There are two sides of the glass. Inside seems more protected, but the artist is very exposed. Outside, those watching from the street seem more vulnerable, though they are protected behind their attitude, their location, perhaps their masks. We scrutinize each other. The roles get transferred along time and through the glass interface which offers little possibilities for communication to happen. Both sides of the glass, outside and in, are exposed and visible, protected and vulnerable. Both sides consuming, and only one side selling.
