“So what is the action ?
I make walks
and,
materialise my walk texts.
This is the action.
In other words, if I do not make a walk
I cannot materialise a walk text.
My contribution to contemporary art is simply, ‘The Walk’.
I do not
also
– in addition –
make wordless abstract paintings and sculpture. I do not consider myself to be ‘a studio artist’.
It means that my art making practice does not include
other forms of transport, such as driving.
An Object Cannot Compete With An Experience.”
