You’re here and I’m there… this is what you see, and I hear…
Forajidos de la caravana,
rostros curtidos al sol.
Tatuajes descoloridos en el pecho…

Caravan Fugitives,
Sun-dried faces.
Faded tattoos on chest…

A special thanks to my friends at Walking Culture.
“WALKING CULTURE: 1900 KM ON FOOT
A JOURNEY THAT CROSSES FRONTIERS THROUGH 6 COUNTRIES: FRANCE, MONACO, ITALY, SLOVENIA, HUNGARY AND SLOVAKIA
JULY 19 is the set date. Walking Culture will begin a 1900 km walking expedition that connects the two 2013 European Cultural Capitals; Marseille (France) and Kosice (Slovakia)
This will be a sustainable journey on foot – expected to last from two to three months – with minimum environmental impact. They will be measuring the carbon footprint they leave en route and be charging their audiovisual equipment with solar power and kinetic energy.
Cultural elements – in any form of expression – will be highlighted in both large cities and more remote locations and the route will be marked digitally on GPS creating an itinerary for future travellers.”
A journey on foot is freedom to see the smallest details of great lands. Join Walking Culture and me on this journey. Free yourself and follow along the road less travelled:

I will be joining them on a parallel journey by train – an artistic endeavor and our interactions, images and experiences will be shared with you. See you here? or there?

Spread the word! I will be starting my journey in Marseille and continuing along the coast up to Italy, then on to Slovenia, Hungary and ending in Kosice, Slovakia.
I am looking for people who would like to form part of the MetAHuman Project and form part of my future artwork. I will be carrying out a work-in-progress along the way, creating all types of material from portraits…well, the anti-portrait… photos, videos and paintings… based on my experiences and sensations in these beautiful lands. This material will later be used to create large-scale works for my next exhibit.

Take me there.
The MetAHuman project begins with a trip from Marseille to Kosice by train. A work-in-progress that will visit large and small towns along the way. Will I see you here or there? Would you like to take part in this artistic endeavor? I am looking for humans who would like to participate in this work-in-progress, and eventually what comes of it will form part of an exhibit inspired by you, HUMAN!
I will be travelling through France, Monaco, Italy, Slovenia, Hungary and Slovakia. I hope to see you there!
