Shifting Landscapes

Why it belongs

I’ve always loved Wong’s romantic representation of New York’s desolation. The two fire fighters/lovers in the foreground of a burning city. What else is there to do, but love? Plus, that brick work is so mesmerizing. I could look at it forever.

It needs to be somehow you can get real up close to it. Maybe in a bedroom? Near a window with a view of the city skyline.
