Traveling by container ship, train and bus, 181 digital drawings record the daily details of a journey from Liverpool (UK) to Liverpool (Nova Scotia). Making an average of six drawings a day, the minutia and randomness of travel is described in a way that builds to become an elliptic graphic essay - describing the dislocation of one person along the historic paths of trade and exodus. The piece will be become a permanent public art work in Liverpool in 2009 where it will be etched into the york-stone paving and glass of a new public site at the centre of Liverpool (UK). As well as the public artwork there will be an accompanying book that collects drawings and writing from the journey together.
