A few years ago, two backpacks, each carrying a 350-page blank book, video camera and a T-shirt, were sent off by Barcelona creative studio Vasava in totally opposite directions to artists and groups in 35 cities, from Medellin to Montreal, an undertaking that went by the name Place Project. The bags and their contents covered a frequent-flyer’s dream of 160,000 miles in 18 months. The idea? To have people to document how the choice of where they live influences their creative process. The project itself is over but the exhibit displaying the sugary-sweet fruits of that labor, Place: The World in a Suitcase, is still traveling. Sao Paulo is the current host of the exhibit while it makes its jaunt through South America. Brazil’s contributions come from Sao Paulo’s renowned motion graphics design house Lobo and Rio de Janeiro’s artist Tonho. Other participants included Los Angeles’ and JS favorite Kozyndan, Milan’s Niko Stumpo and Hong Kong’s Rex Koo.
