I encapsulate nature within the confines of my box, mirroring the voyeuristic allure of my surroundings. A vast park thrives at the city's core. During nighttime flights, I glimpse amidst the glittering lights a rectangular void—a moment when New Yorkers are closest to nature. These plants, sourced from diverse corners of the Earth, converge to form this tableau, shaped by human hands. Cities aren't adversaries of nature; they're symbiotic entities. We, too, reside within vast boxes of our own making.
