Synopsis -  “My Life via michelin”

In the artwork “My Life via michelin” I let the many stations in my life pass through my mind by using routeplaners. I intuitively and abruptly draw small things which reflect my emotional relationship with each of the places.

Starting from my birth I have moved 7077,5 km until I reached the place, where I have been living for the last five years. For me, life is a compilation numerous stations acossiated with diverging and versatile memories.

“My Life via Michelin” should express the idea of life being a journey. Furthermore, it should capture the rich facets of each period of life.
