Walking. Dreaming. Adrift.

The Sleepwalker will be meandering about in a deep sleep until March 2017 on the High Line. In his dream, people walk past giving him strange looks. Some long to touch him. Others are afraid.

I want to dream like the Sleepwalker. Perhaps I do. Perhaps my whole life is but a long sleepwalk. I’ll know when I wake up. Perhaps I never will.

    1. There were mixed reactions. From strange looks as you see in the pics, to hesitant touches. We had a friend with us, also creeped out. Had to call her back to explain it’s only a bronze. I loved him bathed as he was in this golden light!
      The nude sunbathers is such fun! The cool mist spray during summer is an added value 🙂
