The crowd
is her element, as the air is that of birds and water of fishes.
Her
passion and her profession are to become one flesh with the crowd.
For the
perfect flâneuse, for the passionate spectator, it is an immense joy to set up
house in the heart of the multitude, amid the ebb and flow of movement, in the
midst of the fugitive and the infinite.
To be away
from home and yet to feel oneself everywhere at home.”
Adapted from Charles
Baudelaire, “The Painter of Modern Life”
