Hamish Fulton

Born 1946 in London, U.K.

 

 

MY SELF-IMPOSED RULE IS:

I ONLY MAKE ART ABOUT

THE PARTICULAR WALKS THAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED.

 

THIS MEANS:

EVERY ARTWORK I MAKE

MUST INCLUDE A WALK TEXT.

 

Q. Why words?

A. Words can exist in any size

and are independent of any one medium or language.

 

WALKS ARE THE KILOMETRE STONES OF MY LIFE.

EACH WALK MARKS THE FLOW OF TIME BETWEEN BIRTH AND DEATH.

 

By ignoring nature humans are destroying the world.

Through education we need to respect

the diverse life forms of the planet.

Temporary scientific solution will not save us.
