Factory






Years ago I read, something about the photographer Duane Michals, who happens to be a cousin of Andy Warhol(their families were both from former Checoslovaquia), and he was saying that when he was young he was sent some holidays to a farm on the countryside, and every night in the dark, he would be thinking of how much nicer, was the suburb where he lived, by the noise and yellow lights of the big factories, where his father worked.
I felt completely identified with him, because I grew up like in such a place, by the lights and rumor of a big factory, that also kept my dad away from home most nights.
You never felt lonely though...

this is a link to Duane Michals work
