I have always felt an inexplicable yearning for the extreme, perhaps rooted in an instinctual awareness of life and death. Standing on the northernmost coastline of Great Britain, I am captivated by the wind from the North Atlantic as it stirs the waves to crash against the cliffs. Right here, right now, what I cherish most is the air. It contains everything, encompassing the essence of the planet. At this moment, the scent of the air is, to me, a profound expression of love.
