From my eyes only

"Coming from New Delhi which is half way around the world, Milan
was an overwhelming experience for me. My first observations were
visualizations from a total alien pair of eyes which put across the
most profound first impressions of this very European city. Both at
micro & macro level Milan exists as a city in many parallel layers-
socially & culturally. Dignified examples of power architecture
from a world gone by exist side by side with the modern day urban art
expressions such as graffiti and Urban screens. Beautifully inlaid
marble arcades and stone cobbled streets which preserve the old world
charm are strewn with cigarette butts which highlight the juxtaposition
between the indifferent modern day lifestyle with the intricate
workmanship of the yester-years. Hence depending upon the level of your
visual magnification your perception of the city will vary
dramatically."
