Artist / Architect Statement:
I imagine tons of steam billowing out of ducts near the train tracks…
This may be “far out”, this may be “in tune”, I am not sure, but when I see hand sanitizer that says “Kills 99.9% of Germs” it raises some questions. Is this an education issue: are we really talking about people, Germans or probably those with the Neanderthal Genes? Is that “killing” connected to a Freudian or sexualized interpretation of reality, or are we talking about actual murder / homicide because population / resources may be an issue and/or because there may inherent badness in such DNA that should not continue within the human species? (Naturally atrocious).
When I see imperfection and the color brown, I think of natural earthy humble goodness. That is what this project is about.
If you have that “badness gene” (which may or may not be the Neanderthal gene): I say a wholehearted “Good for you” if you can get over your natural predisposition, tendencies, or natural propensities of racism or chauvinism or an “I am better than you” internal attitude / conviction. It must take some real mental fortitude and strength to not indulge and deny such darkness.
