Germany, Kempen city, Von Behring Street No.11 and Shanghai, Jufeng Road 1589, House 210 are two home addresses for artist Liu Guangyun, which crossed through in a time frame of 19 years. During these  years his individual experience was tremendously enriched, being stretched between these 2 points.

In this time he travelled for- and backwards countless times – however not a single time differently than by  air. The jet lag, created by the speed of the airplane and the self rotation of the earth, gave him quite a lot  of trouble and often made him doubt the confirmation of time and distance.

Liu found a terrestial route on earth connecting the 2 addresses, starting point being my house gate door,  passing through each country, each city, each single road, being part of this route. Its length is  1107.9600114143 km.

After confirming the route line the surrounding background of the earth was erased, completely eliminating  the possibility of getting lost on a wrong route. This real existing route line became an abstract and pure  line  - thus having no relevance for any other person apart from himself.

This long line was video installed at a fixed location and is moving from one end to the other end at a  speed of 120 km per hour. Two ways combined. Completing this fictious route filled with detailed, true data  will need about 2 x 92, 258 hours time.
