But not all of it is good. <\/p>\n<p>I love the diversity, i love to see so many cultures mixed together, and all the different styles. The trashy, the ugly and the stylish all combined together creates some kind of a modern mosaic, a city standing on workarounds. No wonder so many artists are living there, there is enough in NYC to inspire me for the next 10 years, observing and questioning life there, filling a sketchbook a day with observations, videos, pictures.<\/p>\n<p>New York is a city of extremes, between riches and poor, each dancing around Manhattan, sharing parts of it. An extreme where advertising is everywhere, where every wall has something for you to buy. People there seem to work only to be able to shop for clothes and hang out in trendy places, maximum consumption seems to be why people are working and living. With people consuming so much, the streets of NYC are constantly filled with trash. Sadly, Manhattan itself must create an island of trash every day. NYC city is a pure chaos when its about cars, and the noise these vehicle create is just impossible to live with &#8211; that is maybe why most new yorkers are walking with an ipod.<\/p>\n<p>In a city where are living so many souls, everyone seem to be lonely. People walk around talking to their phone most of the time, like if they just could not stand being alone. <\/p>\n<p>I think new yorkers are just extremely tolerant people, something i could not be. They tolerate the noise, the trash, the loneliness, the pollution, the cost of living there, and the busyness in every corner of town. <\/p>\n<p>They seem to have found their place in a vibrant, colorful daily chaos going on 24-7. I will still be an observer there, this daily chaos is not for everyone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York city is stunning. But not all of it is good.
