    What if the entire world NEEDED these?
    What if form cam before function?
    What if it was shapeless?
    What if this was made without form?
    What if repetition did not exist?
    What if you are born with out breathing clean air?
    What if this is the food of the future?
    What if air becomes a item sold to the wealth?
    What if contrast was near none existent?
    What if you look at the negative space around the form?
    What if the poor can not breath?
    What if they die even before starvation?
    What if we walked through poison?
    What if this was sewn into your face?
    What if the fabric became like a second skin? .
