The Letter will go out to all 195 recognised nation-states on the planet and to their heads of state, it will eventually also be available online for anyone to download as a pdf, as plain text and email to spread and send to a suitable recipient. Goal The goal with this art project is to shed a light on the problem with the view of “the other” in the world, as well as to shed a light on our global community, the one that we always forget about. A plea to make a real change in the world where the main focus shifts from “mine” to “ours” and a plea to take care of the only home we have. I want all of us to care and to make a global impact, a statement and an effort to make a real difference. This will be done by sending it to human beings in seats of power because they are also just human beings like you and me. If we can reach them, then the real change can start. All this can only be achieved together with the help of other human beings like yourself and your friends to do the same. Content In its simplicity lies the effect, a handwritten letter from one human being to another that reminds us of an old parchment from the 1700’s, which will invoke the curiosity of the receiver. The content is a plea to look beyond superficial attributes like: colour, ethnicity, gender, religion and nationality, not that these attributes are wrong, but because I believe that these categories have divided us more than necessary, and I dream about the day we unite under one race, one human family. It is all done by me, the artist, the human being as a plea to every individual to do something together with me. Because let’s face it, we cannot stand idly by anymore while our home is being destroyed by ourselves due to greed and fear. Ask yourself what kind of society are we creating if we continue on the same path we are currently walking? I believe we all share a dream, so let’s live that dream and make it real. Thank you for your time and I hope that you will share this important message of peace and care.
