A brief explanation:

The works in this project were packed in a carry-on suitcase and carried from my house (Brooklyn, New York) to Galerie West (Den Haag, Holland) via Continental Airlines flight number CO 70 S from Newark-Liberty International to Schiphol Amsterdam at 6:35pm (delayed to 7:35pm) on Thursday August 19, 2010. Nothing was shipped or checked-in. All the works moved with my body, in proximity to my body. While in transit, the furthest away the suitcase ever got from my body was in the trunk of a car, an overhead compartment, and the airport's X-ray machine. Flying internationally, the works (and myself) were subjected to customs and security restrictions and checks.

 
A multi-page PDF was made, which contains artist texts, writings by Ed Steck and myself, some photographs of roses from Ecuador, and other things....
