my land, your land is an ongoing project that started in 1998 with the transference of 30 kilos of earth from my home city of Porto Alegre to São Paulo, where the exhibition took place. At the exhibition space the amount of earth was distributed to the public in 100 grams transparent plastic bags closed with copper wire. The work was repeated in Salvador [20kg], Belém [10kg], Florianópolis [10kg], Rio de Janeiro [240kg], Venezuela and Belo Horizonte. The amount of earth varies according to transport costs and conditions.
* the word “terra” in Portuguese means both dirt and land in English.
