Hundertwasser's comment on the work

WINDOW RIGHTThe right to one's window. Every man must have the right to lean out of his window and to recreate and reshape his third skin, the window and the outside walls of his house as far as his arms can reach so that he distinguishes himself from his imprisoned neighbours, and that from far away everybody can see: there lives a free man.
