"There is a double gaze at play. Just as there is a sense that the buildings see the events on the street below, so too are we looking up at the buildings. As viewers, we are asked to occupy the position of a protestor, someone on the street who is showing up for a cause we believe ina cause worthy of our bodies, worthy of us taking up space and showing others 'I am here'." - Wells Fray-Smith in "A Matter of Perspective"
