Title:The feeling after 110Km
Introduction:National highway.A public space that we feel familiar but Ignored.
It became an independent world because of the rules and the properties.
When we are driving with the speed of 110km/hr,The pressure of drivers and environment
will accumulate gradually.In this system,we can feel less,all of the heterotopia and behaviors
on the street are difficult to be emerge.When we are in this high-speed box,We can only feel
outside with small windows.Except we stay in the service areas that scattered around the highway.
But today's service area has become an over-commercial place.There are full of goods,alternations,
old buildings and the closed edge.The essence of the service area is let people have a
space to take a rest,a moment we can far away from the pressure and get free.I want to seek the essence of this place.
