My interpretation of intersections: “Every day the unfamiliar crosses our path. It might be a person, a thing or an event. If we take these things individually, we tend to see them as dichotomies, like love and hate, hot and cold, good and bad. Yet many times these seemingly unfamiliar objects and circumstances are juxtaposed. And should they meet, the dynamics change—and the possibilities…powerful.”
