Our protagonist’s journey began with an internet research to boarding an airplane. She arrived at Warwick Allerton, way ahead of her check in time. “Oh man I’m starving!” She thought and asked the concierge where’s the hotel restaurant. Unfortunately restaurants and bars were closed due to covid. “But human’s gotta eat…” she thought, so she walked to RL restaurant, ate delicious lunch while people watching and checked out their cool art collections on the walls, as well as the pieces in the lobby to the escalator down to and up from the bathroom.
When she finally checked into her room, she saw the cool drone shot art and snapped a picture (image below.) “Hmm… looks like it was shot before Chicago skyscrapers developed… hmm gold colored water and black and white cityscape…love the metaphor” she thought.
She decided to walk around River North Chicago, went into out of curiosity. Apparently this used to be Starbucks, they operated behind, but took over this summer and just opened the store. “People still come in asking for coffee!” laughed the store saleswoman. She then walked across Streeterville towards Lake shore drive and played with her new Ronin DJI :)
Later that evening, she ate dinner, explored the Chicago night scene, and went to sleep. Art for Life 2021 is next week… perfect excuse for our protagonist return to Chicago? Until next blog, thanks for reading!
