“I look AT the window”, or do you say, “I look OUT the window?”
Down by Law, Jim Jarmusch, 1986.
Window: a device for relating inside and outside. The chosen point of view, the frozen scene, the framed landscape. It is the liberating gesture that breaks the rigidity of a box; the first concession of architecture, continuity, the overcoming of limits.
Through it pass aspirations, fantasies, dreams, tensions; an escape toward the outside world. In it, divergent stories are reflected. The window is the threshold between oneself and the unknown, projection, exposure, and return.
Permanence, rest, disappearance.
An eye, a hole, a drawing.
Seeing and being seen.
Light.
