M2B WORLD PERFORMANCE 8th ANNIVERSARY
8 years ago, on April 22, 2012, I launched the M2B performance around the world. I had already circulated with the sculpture in the streets of Beijing for a year. I decided that this work should operate beyond the city. I wanted to experiment with ‘road art’. It took me 80 days to reach Hong Kong (2012-2013), then M2B was invited to Paris (2014), New York (2016) and Dakar (2018).
M2B is a representation of the world in motion around our world in motion. It combines Eastern and Western principles in order to celebrate slowness and introspection. This is an ongoing ‘artventure’!

Big thanks to all the people who supported the project and who made it possible, and especially today to Bérénice Angrémy who invited me to kick-start the performance at Caochangdi Photospring Arles in Beijing Festival in 2012, to Arora who courageously accompanied me on the sculpture for 3400 km from Beijing to Hong Kong and all the others.
