NORWAY: Where do you prefer to walk? Why do you like to go on that particular trail? Some walk because they have to, while others walk because they want to.
Following the refugee crisis of 2015, the project 100 Meters was developed to investigate issues of migration. Several hundred young participants were invited to participate in the project. They were given the task of filming themselves while walking the best short distance they knew and explaining why they preferred that specific trail. The artistic intention was to explore participatory methodologies, movement and different kinds of documentary material.
The project consisted of video selfies made by participants, photographic portraits, text, artists book and other documentary material. The results of the project were presented in an exhibition. All methods, elements, systems, opportunities, questions, confirmations, documentary material and new knowledge was presented. The participation was presented in form of digital videos, handwritten texts on paper and a video index. The documentary material were presented in form of colour photographs on paper, a text describing what happened during the workshops, objects (selfie sticks), a model made of paper depicting the participants wallking with selfie sticks and an artist's book with photographs and text.
