This piece is a recount of a visit to Times Square. I wanted to capture the intense, bustling, hyperactive atmosphere of New York, and especially Times Square, where people are everywhere, doing different things, like a capitalist cocktail of colourful calamities. The oversaturation and busyness is almost sickening and you become overwhelmed with the technicolour humanity that lays before you.
