Place Memory — 20 Observers

The average is never wrong. It is just no one.
Twenty people look at the same stone threshold. Photograph it from where you stand, draw it in three minutes, choose two words, write one sentence. Then a machine makes the average of all of us — and the printer gives you back only what the average erased from your seeing, misread.
Don't try to see correctly. Please photograph stone, not people.
